Jewett declined to name other candidates but said that Harwell is the only Person currently working at Harvard who is now being considered for the SEO directorship.
Howe said yesterday it is "fair to say" Harwell is the leading candidate for the SEO job. He added that there are several other "strong" candidates under consideration.
