The council began to formulate the selection process for undergraduates last night in an emergency session of its executive board.
Students interested in serving on the committee will be asked to submit a written statement no later than next Monday at noon. After that, SAC will meet to select the two nominees, which then have to be approved by the full Undergraduate Council in a special meeting next week.
The faculty on the committee come from five of Harvard's schools: the Faculty of Arts and Sciences (FAS), the Kennedy School of Government (KSG), the Law School, the Graduate School of Education and the School of Public Health.
FAS has the most seats with four members: Kahn Associate Professor of Economics Caroline M. Hoxby `88, Reischauer Professor of Japanese Politics Susan J. Pharr, Alford Professor of Natural Religion, Moral Philosophy and Civil Policy Thomas M. Scanlon, Jr., and Pforzheimer University Professor Sidney Verba `53.
The law school is represented by Story Professor of Law Daniel J. Meltzer `72, Professor of Law Martha L. Minow and Kirkland and Ellis Professor of Law David B. Wilkins `77, while Littauer Professor of Political Economy David T. Ellwood `75, Professor of Education Marcelo Suarez-Orozco and Professor of Tropical Public Health Dyann F. Wirth round out the faculty representation.
Representing the administration will be Vice President and General Counsel Anne Taylor and KSG Executive Dean Bonnie Newman.
Harvard's three main unions will all be represented as well: Edward Childs for Hotel Employees Restaurant Employees Local 26, which represents dining hall staff; Alexandra Chisholm for the Harvard Union of Clerical and Technical Workers; and Jean Phane of Service Employees International Union Local 254, whose union represents janitors and custodians.
