Faust has never headed an institution with a student population in her professional career.The topics ranged from postseason Ivy League football competition to environmental sustainability.Undergraduate Council members raised concerns about the effect of Harvard’s academic calendar on mental health. Currently, many students spend winter break studying for exams or writing papers in anticipation of January exams.The Faculty of Arts and Sciences addressed changes to the calendar as part of its curricular review, but the College has yet to act make any substantial changes to the calendar.

I find it absurd and frustrating to read in The Crimson that student groups are not interested in using the space when...
