  • 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.

Project History Between 2007 and 2014, Harvard University (Harvard) submitted for MEPA review an Institutional Master Plan (IMP) for development of its campus and other properties in Allston (Ten-Year Plan). Due to the complexity and long build-out period of the projects, an SRP was issued on November 20, 2013, to guide MEPA review of the build-out of the Ten-Year Plan projects. Among the procedures identified in the SRP and the Certificate on the Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR) issued on October 17, 2014, was the filing of a PCN for one or more projects in the IMP as more detail becomes available for such projects.

    THE JOURNAL When “Harvard” Won’t Do A decision in 1976 by the Radcliffe women’s crew continues to affect every single woman who puts an oar in the water at Harvard University today. By Emily Beers May 2014 Emily Beers When Cory Bosworth rowed for the University of California, Berkeley, it often felt as if she was a second-class citizen in her own boathouse. “The boathouse was built for men,” said Bosworth, who is now the assistant coach of the Radcliffe women’s crew at Harvard University, a position she’s held for the past 14 years. 1 of 7 Copyright © 2014 CrossFit, Inc.
