Seven city councilors signed a letter to Board of Overseers President Herbert P. Wilkins '51, "protesting about several things they imagined Herb was doing," according to Robin Schmidt, vice president of community and government affairs for Harvard.
Last April, Wilkins, a State Supreme Court Justice, told a Crimson reporter that he would issue a document in the fall on an investigation by the Overseers' committee on institutional policy into the council's charges. It will "touch on all the frictions between Harvard and Cambridge," he said.
But Wilkins said yesterday that "there will never be a formal written report delivered to anybody" responding to the high-level council complaint.
Wilkins said yesterday that a written report might be warranted but to take over the coals and assess blame isn't as important in the long run" as working quietly behind the scenes to resolve differences with the city.
Both President Bok and his vice president for community and government affairs denied that the oversees or Wilkins had ever intended to publicly release the findings of their investigation.
