For now, students said, they feel excluded from many of those decisions. Illingworth assured them that some of that distance was not intentional but a product of the University's bureaucracy.
Illingworth is one of three deans who work directly for Harry R. Lewis '68, Dean of Harvard College, the man Illingworth termed "the Big Guy."
With the formation of the Radcliffe Institute for the Advanced Study, many of the programs that once were administered through Radcliffe will now fall under Harvard College and those deans.
Students asked Illingworth about the future of some Radcliffe offerings, such as the spring externship program.
He said he expects many of them to be administered by the Office of Career Services, and hopes many new initiatives will also receive funding from the Ann Radcliffe Trust.
The trust will be directed by Assistant Dean of the College Karen E. Avery '87, he said, and will fund student groups as part of the Harvard College Women's Initiative.
Illingworth said he doesn't know how large the trust will be, but said the board reviewing funding applications will include students, alumnae and faculty members.
