The controversy gripping the Graduate School of Design (GSD) for the last ten days remains unresolved as a faculty request for a University-level investigation of the school stalled in the GSD's committee of chairmen.
In a meeting Thursday centering on the GSD budget, the committee quickly decided to delay consideration of a resolution unanimously passed Monday by the Architecture Department that criticized the dean of the GSD and called for the committee of chairmen to ask President Bok for a full investigation of the GSD.
The delay resulted partially from the absence at the meeting of two of the panel's five members, including the dean, Maurice D. Kilbridge. The resolution will not be taken up again until after spring vacation, when the panel has its next meeting, Charles R. Harris, chairman of the GSD's landscape architecture department and one of those at Thursday's meeting, said this week.
Harris also said he believes the resolution from Architecture was "inappropriately addressed" to the committee, noting that the four departmental heads must work with Kilbridge regularly. Instead, he said, the Architecture Department should have sent its resolution directly to President Bok instead of "embarrassing some people."
