Robin Harris, Harry Sheehy

Ivy League Executive Director Robin Harris talks on a YES broadcast:


Dartmouth Athletic Director Harry Sheehy has a letter regarding the developments of the past week or so HERE. Among other things he writes:
In the days and weeks ahead, my fellow members of the President’s Cabinet and I will continue to monitor the situation and work together to make the very best decisions for Dartmouth. Because this is uncharted territory, we’re going to make some decisions with unknown outcomes, simply because it’s too volatile to anticipate all possibilities. You can trust that each decision will be made with careful consideration for the welfare of our students and student-athletes, with as much information as possible and in consultation with as many expert and informed perspectives as possible.
