Abstract/Contents

Abstract: Kenneth J. Arrow served on the Executive Committee of the Academic Council around the time that the Faculty Senate was proposed and on a sub-committee appointed by the Executive Committee to consider Herbert Packer's proposal regarding the creation of an academic senate. Arrow later chaired the Faculty Senate during the 1986-87 term. He offers reflections on the function and effectiveness of the Faculty Senate and compares Stanford's mode of faculty governance with what he experienced at Harvard.
