Short Takes

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Eight new members this year join the ranks of the Advisory Committee on Shareholder Responsibility (ACSR), the 12-member group that advises the Corporation on ethical questions arising out of the University's stock holdings.

The ACSR, which has been at the center of the controversy over Harvard's South Africa-related investments, is made up in equal parts of students, faculty, and alumni.

The new student members are: Ethan Cohen '86; Richard Naimark, a first-year student at the Kennedy School; Barry Sleckman, a second-year student at the Medical School; and Gregory J. Gumina, a first-year law student.

The new faculty representatives are: Jay O. Light, professor of Business Administration at the Business School; David P. Handlin, associate professor-of architecture at the Graduate School of Design; and James Duesenberry Maier Professor of Money and Banking.

The new alumni representative is Charles S. Boit '53, vice-president for investments at the Boston investment counseling firm of Scudder Stevens & Clark.

The four continuing members of the ACSR are: Milton C. Weinstein, professor of policy and decision sciences in the School of Public Health; Theodore Chase '34, a retired lawyer; Ernest Monrad '51, of Northeast Investors Trust of Boston; and Joan Keenan '45 of the John Hancock Mutual Life Insurance Company.
