Sixty-four signatures have now been collected for an open letter for the faculty to sign proposing a moratorium for all decisions on the Rose Art Museum.
The letter, posted by Profs. Ellen Schattschneider (NEJS) and Bernadette Brooten (NEJS) last Wednesday to the faculty was addressed to both University President Jehuda Reinharz and Provost Marty Krauss.
The letter urges that the University "keep the Rose Art Museum open as a public art museum, with professional staffing, continuing exhibitions and active educational programs, until at least June 30, 2010."
Prof. Mark Auslander (ANTH), wrote in an e-mail to the Justice that the letter was supposed to been delivered to both Provost Marty Krauss and President Reinharz yesterday.
While Krauss declined to say whether the administration had discussed the letter, she said in an interview with the Justice that "the letter is an expression of feelings and desires, but its recommendation is not one that I think the administration will take in advance of the committees report."
