At the May 7 meeting, a frustrated Dean of the Faculty Jeremy R. Knowles angrily referred the public service questions of Marco B. Simons '97 to Dean of the College Harry R. Lewis '68. When Simons persisted, Knowles curtly responded, "My answer stands."
"I tried politely to answer the first set of questions in April, believing that the students were not aware of the proper procedure," Knowles says. "I was less flexible when the same thing occurred on May 7th."
"We bring up questions in Faculty meetings when we have no other choice," Simons says. "Faculty meetings are our only institutional contact with Dean Knowles."
Hyman, Simons, Smith and Rawlins recently presented a letter to Knowles requesting a visitor's seat on the Faculty Council, but Knowles has not yet formally responded.
Dean of the Faculty Jeremy R. Knowles and Thomson Professor of Government Jorge I. Dominguez, chair of the Faculty Committee on Ethnic Studies, have consistently rebuffed student calls for an ethnic studies department.
