	Kennedy School Op-Ed: Chad Hazlett and Rebecca Hamilton: Harvard Backslides on Divestment
		IN APRIL last year, Harvard University was widely applauded for divesting its $4.4 million holdings in the oil company PetroChina on the grounds that it did not want Harvard funds to support the genocide in Darfur.
		With Harvard Corporation members declining to comment, it is difficult to ascertain why they decided to buy more shares of Sinopec -- especially against the backdrop of last year's very public PetroChina divestment.
		Harvard's divestment last year, unlike the universities and states that followed, was limited to PetroChina, thereby neglecting Sinopec and other corporations known to bankroll the genocide in Darfur.

		(The other is the Harvard Board of Overseers.) On 9 June 1650, at the request of President Henry Dunster, the Great and General Court of Massachusetts (i.e., the colonial legislature) issued the body's charter, making it the oldest corporation in the The Americas.
		In fact, due to the history of the Harvard Corporation, its set of laws is written into the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
		When it was originally founded, the corporation was probably intended to be a body of the college's resident instructors, like the fellows of an Oxbridge college.

	Governing Harvard - Harvard Magazine (May-June 2006)
		The University’s governance thus ultimately depends on who the Corporation members are and how they perceive their role, conduct their work, involve themselves in the selection and evaluation of Harvard’s senior management, and participate in the shaping of policies and strategic directions.
		Among the latter, Harvard’s Corporation is unusual in having a membership that is formally self-perpetuating, rather than elected, and whose members serve without specific term limits (informal limits are discussed in “Serving on the Corporation,” page 28).
		When the Harvard system seems to be lurching a little bit, it’s because each of these bodies is trying to expand its role in some sense and there’s no explicit understanding of the role of the others, so it becomes sort of a free-for-all.

	Harvard Independent (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		Above and beyond the dramatic shift on the national political spectrum and what could prove to be a turning point in the opaque operations of the Harvard Corporation, the year was characterized by its grand finale: the 21-day occupation of Mass.
		The tension between the PSLM and Harvard’s administration had been building for years, ever since the earliest student grumblings about labor policies were dismissed by the administration and much of the student body as irrationally idealistic or, even worse, representative of a lackluster generation lamenting its inability to match the activist achievements of its parents.
		Eventually, of course, the ghosts of Harvard Past and Future (as well as that of John Harvard himself) presented their perspectives, and the newly enlightened President Rudenstine granted a living wage to all Harvard employees.

		In the third, the reaction to the resignation of Faculty of Arts and Sciences Dean William Kirby, the Corporation actively undermined the president by letting it be known that it was consulting with faculty opposed to him.
		Summers was trying to hold Harvard to a higher standard of excellence than it was becoming used to—exemplary scholarship from all faculty, hiring only the best without the pressure to meet a quota based on sex, and a challenging curriculum that gets the best out of students as well as faculty.
		The Corporation is composed of liberals and leftists, and was reportedly led in this action by the feminist Nannerl Keohane, former president of Duke University, and by liberal democrat Robert Reischauer, president of the Urban Institute.

	The Harvard Crimson :: Opinion :: Making Harvard's Corporation Our Own
		Harvard is primarily an educational and research institution, and yet the people who govern it—with the exception of former University of Chicago President Hanna H. Gray—can hardly claim to be qualified as academics.
		The Corporation needs to be far more transparent in its day-to-day operations, and it should begin by releasing meeting times and locations and publishing meeting agendas and minutes.
		Harvard should take the opportunity that Winokur’s vacancy presents to begin a process to open up the closed circles of power at the very top of the institution.

	Serving on the Corporation - Harvard Magazine (May-June 2006)
		In a sense, Henry, you’re absolutely right that if you look at a publicly owned corporation, the process by which directors get elected or selected and put up to the shareholders for a vote is not dissimilar to the way the Harvard Corporation members are selected in reality.
		One of the things we know from corporate boards is that if they get too big, they don’t work at all, but this thing stays small and is actually smaller—I looked at the size of the other Ivy League governing boards and this is much smaller.
		There are actually several meetings set aside in the spring for the Corporation ex the president to meet to talk about the year and the president’s performance, and at the beginning of the academic year there’s a conversation with the president about priorities.

		I am concerned that Harvard's ongoing investment in PetroChina, a corporation that supports the Sudanese Government needlessly serves to perpetuate the suffering of Sudanese citizens in the Darfur region at the hands of government-sponsored militias.

		The notoriously secretive Harvard Corporation, a seven-member board at the University’s nexus of power, is the only governing body which could ultimately unseat Summers, who is himself a member of the Corporation.
		A handful of members on Harvard’s Board of Overseers—a board with far less authority than the Corporation—spoke glowingly of Summers in interviews yesterday, but were also quick to acknowledge the limits of their power.
		The Corporation’s steadfast secrecy—no public agenda or minutes of their meetings are released—has long cast an air of mystery over their proceedings.

	First African-American Woman Named to Harvard Corporation - The Tech
		Harvard University for the first time named an African-American woman, legal scholar Patricia A. King, to serve on its governing corporation on Sunday.
		Arthur Kleinman, chairman of the anthropology department and a signatory to the open letter, said members of the corporation have done a better job consulting faculty this fall than they had during the height of the controversy in the spring, when the Faculty of Arts and Sciences voted no confidence in Summers.
		She recently ended a five-year tenure as chairwoman of the board at Wheaton College in Norton, her alma mater, and is vice chairwoman of the Kaiser Family Foundation.

		Allston Burr, A.B. 1889, made an initial generous contribution toward the cost of the building and the Harvard Corporation provided the remainder.
		In June 1956, the Corporation voted that holders of Corporation appointments should be entitled to membership without payment of dues and, in order to cover the consequent deficit, in 1959 it charged the Committee of Deans with the provision of an annual subvention and with responsibility for the operation of the Club.
		In 1965, the Corporation and the Committee of Deans generously provided funds to permit the enlargement of the Club in order to afford adequate facilities for the great increase of membership, which had taken place since its founding.

		Perhaps equally telling were the subjects that the Corporation did not consider priorities -- the effect of the university's great wealth on its self-image, its mission, and its integrity.
		The fellows of the Corporation were not particularly interested in that wealth's potentially adverse and unintended consequences; most of them were more interested in accruing money than in critiquing it.
		They tended to come from corporations and consulting firms, and their style of doing things reflected a corporate culture rather than an academic one.
