But neither predicted what would happen when their oldest son, Sebastian D. G. Knowles '83, became a Harvard first-year.
"We delivered him to Greenough and after about four days, we received a letter," Jeremy Knowles says. "He was one mile from home, 200 yards from my office, 300 yards from his mother's office--we got the point."

Since Jeremy Knowles became dean of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences in 1991, the couple has become even closer to the college family. Both speak fondly of the constant stream of new faces--students, faculty, and alumni--who they say make their official dinners a pleasure to host.
