A committee chaired by Duke University Trustee Wilhelmina Reuben-Cooke has been charged with conducting the regular review of Duke President Nannerl O. Keohane, university officials announced this week. An announcement released this week by the University Secretary's office stated that the committee's charge is to "consider initiatives and activities that have gone well and should be continued and to make suggestions for areas of improvement. It will be the responsibility of the committee to gather information and opinions widely from interested individuals, groups and constituencies of the university." Other panelists include trustees Susan King, Christopher Lam and Robert Steel; Dr. John Baillie, associate professor of medicine; Toril Moi, professor of literature; and Richard Schmalbeck, professor of law and a member of the executive committee of Academic Council. The committee is looking to collect information from the entire Duke community. Comments can be forwarded to any member of the committee by March 2. Comments can also be made anonymously, although all information will be kept confidential.
