Jean Sutherland Boggs told the Fine Arts Department she is "disposed" to accept a tenured position if the Board of Overseers offers it, department chairman John M. Rosenfield said yesterday.
The Overseers will meet on May 10 to decide whether or not to offer Boggs tenure, Rosenfield said.
However, according to one highly placed administration source, such an offer is largely pro forma. The Overseers haven't turned down a suggestion for tenure since "at least the 1930s," the source said.
If Boggs accepts the board's official offer, she will be the Fine Arts Department's only modernist and first tenured woman. She is currently director of the National Gallery of Canada.
