Brown University seniors yesterday decided whether President Bok will receive their class award for outstanding contributions to higher education, but the votes won't be tallied until this morning, according to award organizer Andrew Moses.
Originally, the 250-300 votes were scheduled to be counted yesterday, Moses said.
But the tally between the three finalists--Bok, Yale President A. Bartlett Giematti, and author Alice M. Walker--was rescheduled for today because of technical difficulties.
In a preliminary vote two weeks age, the three finalists-who were determined from a list of 25 that included the Rev. Jesse Jackson and astronomer Carl Sagan-each received the same number of votes, in what Moses called "an incredible coincidence."
The winner will be invited to speak during Brown's Senior Week on subjects involving universities and their role in the public arena; Moses said.
