The Resignation—1:14 PM, 2/21/06
Dear Members of the Harvard Community,
I write to let you know that, after considerable reflection, I have notified the Harvard Corporation that I will resign as President of the University as of June 30, 2006. I will always be grateful for the opportunity to have served Harvard in this role, and I will treasure the continuing friendship and support of so many exceptional colleagues and students at Harvard.
Below are links to my letter to the community, as well as a letter from the members of the Corporation and a related news release.
Sincerely,
Larry Summers
