Citing Faculty Size, Knowles Tells Council Expansion Is a Top Priority

Knowles noted that, in 2012, the College will likely take over the building that is now the Inn at Harvard, thereby making space available for faculty and students.

He also said renovations on existing structures would be key to increasing undergraduate living space. But adding a 13th House to the College's residential system is not a likely option, according to Knowles.

hree bills were on the council's docket last night, two of which passed.

In the night's most contentious debate, the "Shuttle Service Reform Act of 2001" was eventually tabled indefinitely--denied by detractors who claimed the bill had not been adequately researched.

Co-sponsored by James R. Griffin '01 and Todd E. Plants '01, chair of the council's Student Advisory Committee, the bill was designed to recommend that the University alter its shuttle schedule to better serve undergraduates.

It called for changes both in the number of shuttles and in the routes they follow.
