Upgrades, literacy form master planner's agenda

摘要

A bout 370 years ago, Harvard University was still a "college" in its infancy and had just a handful of students and one master. Since then, the nation's oldest institution of higher education has only grown in size and in reputation. It has evolved through the centuries, and radically, even, in some periods of its history. It may have retained many of its core values as an academic institution, as well as its culture, standards and thus its prestige. But, like every university, it must progress with the times. Dining service was presumably not an issue in 1636 when Harvard's enrollment didn't quite hit the double-digits. By 1997, when Ted Mayer left Middlebury (VT) College, to join the team at Harvard, dining services had been in full swing for a long time and the facilities were ready for an upgrade.
