The Faculty Council of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences at its first meeting of the year Wednesday (Sept. 17) heard several reports on developments since the council adjourned in May. Dean William C. Kirby (FAS and history) spoke on the year ahead. He also briefed council members on new appointments to tenure, on new administrative appointments, and on the work of the council itself. Additionally, the dean discussed the work of the Ad Hoc Committee to Review the Appointments Process, which is expected to report this term.
