A poetry reading that College President James Freedman had planned to host yesterday in a Wheeler dormitory lounge was cancelled because the President had to leave town unexpectedly, Area Coordinator Tracie Waack '94 said.
The President's Office notified Waack and the event's organizers of the change in plans on Tuesday.
"It was really disappointing for us because we only had 24- hour notice, and I feel bad we couldn't notify the whole campus," Waack said.
Freedman has offered to reschedule but a date has not been set.
The event was organized by Undergraduate Advisers Blake Kutner '94 and Ramesh Narasimhan '96.
Freedman could not be reached for comment yesterday.
