Belanger says that he was not clear about his resident dean’s specific role in his hearing.
Yet even this arrangement has led some to question the dual purpose of the resident dean—who is expected to serve the needs of both the board and the student.
Harvey A. Silverglate, a Boston lawyer who co-founded the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education and has represented students charged by the Ad Board, calls the resident dean’s role a “conflict of interest.”
“[The resident dean’s] loyalty is entirely to Harvard, which determines the [resident dean’s] recommendations to further his or her education and career,” Silverglate says in a statement.
Current Ad Board member and Resident Dean of Quincy House Judith F. Chapman says that a resident dean can provide a complete picture of his or her student that would not otherwise come to light at the hearing.
