The College is not the only Harvard school that prevents students from participating in its administrative and disciplinary body. Harvard Medical School has two such organizations, the Academic Societies Promotion and Review Board and the Standing Committee on Rights and Responsibilities, neither of which has any student members.
Whether called an Administrative Board or an Academic Societies Promotion and Review Board, these committees deal mainly with ensuring that students' behavior, both academic and social, matches that expected of a Harvard student.
Indeed, during the 1999-2000 academic year, only 136 out of 2,793 cases were disciplinary matters.
And the same seems to be true of the other schools at Harvard as well. Most of these administrative and disciplinary organizations function primarily to monitor the academic performance of the school's students.
In addition to academic tasks, Sternin will also spend time at the shelter.
