Students came to Emerson 108 last night to ask about the Ann Radcliffe Trust. They left feeling their questions went unanswered.
Director of the Trust Karen E. Avery '87 met with two dozen students in a "town meeting"-style format, also featuring Dean of the College Harry R. Lewis '68, Acting Dean of the Radcliffe Institute of Advanced Study Mary Maples Dunn and Lewis' Special Assistant Julia G. Fox.
One student asked whether the Trust committee's application process or its minutes would be made public.
"Those are all possibilities," Avery said.
Another asked the panel to define the "women's issues" on campus.
Lewis responded: "We don't come at this with an agenda pre-defined."
The ambiguity left students unfulfilled.
"It's what I expected--the evasiveness with which questions are not answered," said Kathryn B. Clancy '01, co-chair of Radcliffe Union of Students (RUS).
