Posted about 10 times on her resignation. She also keeps her $900k annual salary and remains working for Harvard.

She does not “continue working for Harvard,” she “continues drawing a paycheck from Harvard.”

Are the 2nd and 3rd words in the title out of sequence?

Heh

Good riddance —— how do I get one of those cushy jobs where I make $900,000 after quitting my job?

FTA——

To paraphrase Churchill, Harvard’s clear
choice was between scandal and dishonor;
it chose dishonor and now it will have scandal.


Harvard had to choose:
(a) to be America’s preeminent university,
or (b) have a plagiarist as its president.

But not both.

Gay’s fallback position was that she had adhered to the “highest standards of scholarship,” as her growing history of plagiarism made such assertions preposterous—and exposed the gullible Harvard Corporation that swallowed her academic BS as ethically compromised themselves.

“Tolerance and compassion” works well when govt jobs and tax dollars are being allocated by the pols on Capitol Hill but it is a ruinous stance in the hallowed halls of ivy.

Incorrect, President Claudine Gay will still likely earn nearly $900,000 a year despite being forced to resign her position as the school’s top administrator. She will be returning to a position on the Cambridge, Mass., school’s faculty.

“Good enough for government work” has been replaced by “good enough for an affirmative action graduate/job applicant”.

Have you been in hibernation up there in Minnesota?

In other news, resident Biden enjoyed an ice cream cone on his 80th birthday.

c/ Harvard can claim to have a highly paid, academically incompetent, known plagiarist on the faculty.

She can always go home and do standup comedy in one of the clubs in Port-au-Prince.

She got her job because “white people bad” and she leaves according to her for the same reason.

At least she’s consistent.

In September 1987, Biden announced he was dropping out of the presidential race since he had been caught uttering words as his own that he had plagiarized. The New York Times observed: “His whole life might have changed if he had said two words on the debate stage: ‘Like Kinnock …’

Biden's aggressive body language suggests he thinks
it was somebody else's fault that he is a plagiarist.

"If Harvard appoints as its permanent president another candidate on the basis of DEI without a record of substantial scholarship, intellectual probity, recognized teaching, and administrative excellence, then the university will only reinforce the now growing consensus that it has abandoned even the veneer of meritocracy. And the institution will thus continue on its current Target/Disney/Bud Lite trajectory."

Harvard - the "Bud Light" of universities.

Victor Davis Hanson nails it again.

Honestly, does anyone even fantasize that Harvard will appoint a reputable scholar and proven leader if that person is male, white, straight? C’mon, man.
