  • Debating Diversity Following the Widely Publicized Deaths of Black Tape
    KENNEDY SCHOOL, UNDER CONSTRUCTION. The Harvard Kennedy School aims to build students’ capacity for better public policy, wise democratic governance, international amity, and more. Now it is addressing its own capacity issues (as described at harvardmag.com/ hks-16). In January, as seen across Eliot Street from the northeast (opposite page), work was well under way to raise the level of the interior courtyard, install utility space in a new below-grade level, and erect a four-story “south building.” The project will bridge the Eliot Street opening between the Belfer (left) and Taubman (right) buildings with a new “gateway” structure that includes faculty offices and other spaces. The images on this page (above and upper right) show views diagonally across the courtyard from Taubman toward Littauer, and vice versa. Turning west, across the courtyard toward the Charles Hotel complex (right), affords a look at the current open space between buildings; the gap is to be filled with a new, connective academic building, including classrooms.

  • Senior Counsel's Office
    Senior Counsel’s Office In its fifth year, fiscal year 2004, the Senior Counsel’s Office is MIT’s central in‐house counsel’s office, providing comprehensive legal services and counseling on MIT matters in all areas of concern to the academy and the administration (except intellectual property law). The office represents MIT’s president, provost, executive vice president, and chancellor, as well as the deans, vice presidents, the departments, laboratories, and research centers, and administrative offices. We also arrange for and manage outside legal services when needed and oversee all litigation. Our office includes MIT’s senior counsel Jamie Lewis Keith, contracts counsel Margaret Brill, and litigation and risk management counsel Mark DiVincenzo, as well as a law clerk, Kathryn Johnson. (In FY2004 our office also included a part‐time environmental counsel. In FY2005 the office will include an associate counsel.) We are problem solvers and strategic‐thinking partners for our clients. We strive to be enablers, helping MIT’s senior officers, faculty, and staff to accomplish their mission‐critical objectives and to make informed decisions. Our office also brings the lessons learned from litigation, other disputes, and major transactions back to the MIT community through counseling and education. These lessons support management and faculty initiatives to minimize and avoid those reputational, financial, operational, and legal risks that can be appropriately managed, while still achieving MIT’s core mission. The Senior Counsel’s Office advises
