New York Times editorial board member Mara Gay was furious on today's Morning Joe over Harvard's president Claudine Gay (no relation) being forced to resign. Mara Gay proclaimed "This is an attack on diversity. This is an attack on multiculturalism. I don’t have to say that they’re racist, because you can hear and see the racism in the attacks."
In fact, it is the Claudine Gays of the academic world who are the biggest enemies of true diversity -- diversity of ideas. CG's the one, for example, who hounded two Harvard faculty members for failing to toe the DEI line. The DEI crowd are the opposite of pluralists: they seek to cancel those who dare to differ from leftist orthodoxy.
Mara Gay began by denouncing the "unrelenting campaign from the right and from some conservative activists to slander" the Harvard boss, even to "scalp" her. She failed to even mention plagiarism, but had the chutzpah to claim that Claudine was promoting "more scholarly rigor." Riiight. Because nothing says "scholarly rigor" like lifting dozens of quotes from others without attribution.

Too stupid and ideologically hidebound to waste words on her.
“I don’t have to say that they’re racist...”
Well, thank God for that....
Are they related?
U Penn’s Liz Magill also resigned, though she is white. The public outcry is primarily a rebuke of wokeism.

A real right wing racist attack would be to seize the Harvard endowment and give it to white males as reparations for decades of discrimination and slander.

Her PHD lives up to the acronym...
Piled Higher and Deeper.
Claudine Gay, black, a women (probably a lesbian, I can’t confirm that) is appointed Dean to what I thought was the most prestigious technical college in the world is also a liar and a thief for stealing other scholar’s work. But she was “attacked”. If I were her, I would hang my head in shame.
A blatant and multiple times cited plagiarist— of a Black Academic woman who should have gotten Gay’s job. A black sociologist interviewed on Clay and Buck and many other shows— quoting the actual stolen work in Gay’s phd “thesis’. She is a fraud- no matter what race she is- and the fact she herself screams racism is the LAST card she can throw. Unbelievably stupid pin head woman put in her job by Obama’a former Commerce Secretary and sister to IL Gov. Pritzker- Penny Pritzker (herself a slumlord Chi-town landord and developer. Most famous talk was in... CUBA with Raul Castro looking on and applauding. She is one piece of work. Orlandoans should know how she acquired the US Naval Training Center from the machinations of Dan Rostenkowski— favoring Great Lakes IL over year round warm training and Navy recruiting incentive at a base formerly in Orlando. Former USAF base from 1940’s). Greed personified Pritzkers.
