After a period of missionary service in India, Richardson returned to Canada and in 1961 became Dean[5] of Carey Hall at the University of British Columbia.[6] In addition to his responsibilities as Dean of Carey Hall, Richardson was also Chaplain to the University of British Columbia as well as Lecturer of Oriental Religions.[7]
