Dear Harvard College Students,

My heart is heavy as I share the news that our beloved Faculty Dean Ann Porter of Dunster House passed away peacefully this morning. Ann was a gentle and loving colleague and friend to generations of Dunster and Harvard College students. Our thoughts, wishes, and tears are with Roger and Ann’s family and loved ones. We have been truly blessed and honored these years to count Ann as one of the pillars of our community.

Words can’t convey our sadness at Ann’s passing. Dunster House is opening their Junior Common Room tonight at 7 pm for those in the community who would like to gather.

We will await information regarding the family’s wishes and communications about services.

Warmly,
Dean Khurana
