One recent academic change which promises to have an enormous impact on student life was not made by the full Faculty, but by Knowles alone.
In this rare instance, Knowles had discretionary power over the Faculty's portion of the funds raised through the Capital Campaign.
Knowles also says that increasing financial aid for graduate students--an issue the Faculty Council will continue to address this year--has potential to improve the quality of teaching fellows.
The change--which will result in a 10 percent increase in the number of sections--may be just the first in a series of cuts to section size, Knowles says.
According to Knowles, recent renovations to Boylston Hall and the Barker Center were designed to cater specifically to undergraduate academic needs.
