Harvard board elects new member

December 4, 2005

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. --A Georgetown University Law
professor who specializes in biomedical ethics was
elected Sunday to become a member of Harvard's top
governing board, the university announced.

Patricia A. King, a 1969 alumna of Harvard Law School
who has been on the Georgetown faculty for more than
three decades, was elected to the seven-member Harvard
Corporation.

The election comes as the university continues to
develops the Harvard Stem Cell Institute. Researchers
hope to find treatments for illnesses such as diabetes
and multiple sclerosis. Critics say some of the
research crosses a troubling ethical boundary.

King is "a person of extraordinarily broad
intellectual and professional interests" with
"abundant experience in bridging the worlds of
academia and public policy, as well as the domains of
law, science, and ethics," James R. Houghton, senior
member of the Harvard Corporation, said in a prepared
statement.

King said she's "deeply honored." She begins in May.

"The extremely difficult challenges facing the nation
and the world over the coming decades will require
substantial efforts and contributions by our
institutions of higher education," King said in a
statement.

She fills the vacancy left by Conrad K. Harper, who
resigned this summer over a proposed raise to
university President Lawrence H. Summers. Harper also
cited his dissatisfaction with Summers' controversial
comments about women's aptitude for science and math,
as a reason for his resignation.

The Harvard Corporation makes policy and personnel
decisions, including hiring the president and electing
board members.
