Online ExclusiveLevin urges Corporation to approve expansion plans
University President Richard Levin said Monday that he would recommend that the Yale Corporation proceed with planning to build two new residential colleges.
In an e-mail to the Yale community, which included the release of a long-awaited report examining the viability of expanding Yale College, Levin said he would ask the Provost’s Office to develop estimated capital and operating budgets for the construction and operation of the new colleges and for the Development Office to prepare a fundraising plan for those expenditures.
