Institutional Master Plan Community Task Force

For more than a decade, the University has been working with a Campus Task Force . The role of the Campus Task Force, comprised of Allston-Brighton residents and members of the business community, is to review the proposed Institutional Master Plan and make a recommendation about the adequacy of the plan to the BRA Board for approval. In addition, the Campus Task Force evaluates each campus project that qualifies for more detailed review to determine the consistency of the project with the Institutional Master Plan itself.

In January, 2006, Boston Mayor Thomas M. Menino announced a new Campus Task Force to serve as an advisory board to Harvard and the BRA as Harvard begins its institutional master planning process for the expanded Allston Campus.  The current Task Force members are:

Paul Berkeley	John Bruno
Cathleen Campbell	John Cusack
Rita DiGesse	Brian Gibbons
Michael Hanlon	Bruce Houghton
Brighton Lew	Harry Mattison
Millie Holcum McLaughlin	Ray Mellone
Tim Norton	Brent Whelan
