The Wythes Committee was appointed in the fall of 1997 to consider a number of long-term strategic issues facing Princeton over the coming decade, including issues relating to the size of the undergraduate student body, the undergraduate financial aid program, the Graduate School, the faculty, the administrative and support staffs, the University's physical resources, the University's financial resources, the use of new technologies and the Library. The chair of the committee was Paul M. Wythes, a charter trustee from California and a member of the Princeton class of 1955 (Box 340, Wythes Committee Task Force, Wythes Committee Report Announcement).
