Lately, those meetings have been fairly successful. Most recently, the support of Dean of the College Harry R. Lewis '68 has propelled the council's vision of universal keycard access (UKA), largely because Lewis was able to convey the appropriate steps to success.
"While both the U.C. and I have been supportive of UKA, it would not have happened if I simply took input from the U.C. president," Lewis writes in an e-mail message, saying he conveyed to the council the importance of getting the House masters to agree with the plan...
Lewis says dealing with the council president is less about wins and losses than about a meeting of student and administrative minds.
Lewis provides a pertinent anecdote from four years ago, when the first members of the Class of 2000 arrived on campus.
"The keycard entry system refused to let them into their dormitories on the basis that they had graduated 96 years earlier. This problem was fixed within hours, so most people never even heard of it," Lewis explains.
