Former Harvard-Radcliffe Dramatic Club President Daniel A. Cozzens ’03 said that Megan had worked with him to hire professional directors and producers for student shows.
“Jack was starting initiatives that were going places,” he said. “Not having Jack as active behind several of these initiatives will be tough.”
Cozzens said that students would have to compensate for Megan’s temporary absence.
“The important thing is for student leaders of artistic groups to step up and try to do some of the thinking he would be doing on his projects,” Cozzens said. “They need to try to dedicate more of their time on these projects—that Jack would have spent.”
McCormick said that the OFA’s large staff will be able to assist students with “ideas, problems, initiatives, or…advice” in Megan’s absence.
“We have an excellent staff that can help students in any way, effectively and immediately,” McCormick said.
