Currently, students are required to come before a group of at most 20 members of the Ad Board—which includes 31 standing members as well as a number of non-voting guests, and on occasion the University President and FAS Dean. Students would be allowed to bring into the room personal advisers—typically faculty members or FAS officers—who could suspend proceedings to take students out for a brief break to discuss case materials. The Secretary of the Ad Board or another College administrator—instead of the resident dean...
