Sharon Howell's Letter to Faust Addressing the Secret Email Search

Read the full text of a March 11 letter from Senior Resident Dean Sharon Howell to University President Drew G. Faust. In the letter, Howell expressed concern about administrators' handling of a secret search of resident deans' emails last fall. The Boston Globe reported on March 9 that administrators covertly searched the email accounts of 16 resident deans last September in an effort to trace the origin of a media leak regarding the Government 1310 case.
