Knowles said much of the support for increased financial aid came from Faculty members who were concerned GSAS was losing students to institutions which could offer more generous aid.
"Some departments were certainly feeling themselves to be non-competitive with respect to other institutions," Knowles said. "Part of that is because of the apparent insecurity of our current arrangements."
Knowles said that if the Faculty approves a final version of the new financial aid program, it will be implemented next fall.

Knowles said it is not unusual for facultymembers to leave Harvard for other institutions,but expressed his regrets about Fiorina's decisionto leave.
