Garber Privately Tells Faculty That Harvard Must Rethink Messaging After GOP Victory
The Student Council last night appointed a sub-committee to draft a reply to the Committee to Save Harvard Education's petition, which asked the Council to "investigate the recent terminations of appointments of ten assistant professors."
The draft will be submitted to the full Council for approval when it meets again next Tuesday night.
During last night's four-hour session the Council consulted with two permanent members of the Faculty on the problems raised by the Administration's actions in handing terminating appointments to ten assistant professors last June.
