Harvard Provost John F. Manning ’82 took the podium to begin summoning deans of Harvard’s schools to present their candidate to Garber, fellows of the Harvard Corporation, and the Board of Overseers.
Manning first introduced Faculty of Arts and Sciences Dean Hopi E. Hoekstra, before moving to Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Emma Dench. Manning then continued to go one-by-one through the remaining schools, inviting their respective deans to the podium.
Several of the deans’ remarks were met with a tidal wave of applause from the crowd.
When Harvard Law School Dean John C.P. Goldberg told Manning that his students would work toward “advancing justice and promoting the rule of law,” dozens of Law School students and faculty members pumped their fists and gave Goldberg a standing ovation.
And when Harvard Kennedy School Dean Jeremy M. Weinstein pledged that his students would “provide leadership in public service,” dozens of HKS students responded by repeating “HKS” in a rhythmic chant.
