Modified: 4/22/2021 9:52:26 PM
HANOVER Dartmouth College plans to survey employees about their experiences working from home and create a working group to make recommendations about the practice in the future.
After restricting access to its campus during the COVID-19 pandemic, Dartmouth has said it hopes to have its employees return for the fall term. But in a virtual town hall forum on Wednesday, Dartmouth Executive Vice President Rick Mills said the past year has shown the potential of having some employees working from home or other remote locations.
He said he and Provost Joseph Helble are forming the group to develop policies related to remote work and will survey Dartmouth employees for their suggestions. Recommended policies are expected by the end of the current academic year, Dartmouth said.

HANOVER When Peter Roby agreed to return to his alma mater to lead its athletic department, one of the first calls he received was from a former Ivy League basketball rival.
Paul Cormier had two stints coaching the Dartmouth College men’s hoop program, the first of which brought twice-a-year matchups against Harvard teams Roby led. Cormier owned the upper hand back then, winning eight of 12 encounters before both men moved on from their respective sidelines in the early 1990s. They’ve remained friends since, while Cormier worked college and NBA jobs as Roby advanced in college sports administration.
