Put them to work hauling night soil (human excrement).
Since our present intellectuals seem to favor Chairman Mao, maybe they would like to participate in a re-inaction.
I never heard anyone say it’s a victory.
She is absolutely unrepentant...like a psychopath.
True. Gay was forced out because of her anti-Semitism. Her anti-white racism was no problem.
The big question: Will Jewish billionaires resume funding the Ivy League and DEI, provided that Jews and Israel are classified among the victims of white supremacy.
My guess is, yes.
It’s a tactical victory, not strategic. The war will continue for many more battles.
or if one wants to go Churchillian:
It not the end, nor even the beginning of the end, but perhaps the end of the beginning.
We've said the resignation was past due, but none of us are stupid enough to believe this solves the problem that has been festering for 30 or 40 years in these institutions.
Fixed it.
We have to stop calling it a resignation. It was a demotion that protected her employment at Harvard.

If it was the "Harvard Corporate Board" that protected Gay and defended her plagiarism, then it's time to tax Harvard at the corporate tax rate.

I don’t think it’s a victory.
They are rewarding her and this is just virtue signaling.
I’m not disappointed that she’s out of that position, but unless she was stripped of her pay and credentials and the degree she got under false pretenses, it means nothing.
I knew a woman once who admitted when she was in college, that she went into her profs office once and changed her grades to passing so she could get credit for the course and graduate. She didn’t do it enough to send up red flags, but just bumped them up enough to get herself passed.
The prof was also foolish for both leaving the book laying around, and for using pencil for recording the grades.
I was very pleased to see that the comments on this thread echoed my immediate response to the headline.
How in the world is a sad end for a in-over-her-head woman a “victory” for somebody?
She shouldn’t have gotten the job. She didn’t do it well enough. She crashed and burned. The board and board committees that hired her should be ashamed of themselves, but the probably aren’t.
It is worse for liberals than they want anyone to think.
Nothing changed as she just changed her title and still gets her $900,000 salary. She has made millions by lying and stealing.
A protected class, she keeps her job and now will do less for it, she wins. The stupid will replace her with the same possibly worse if you can imagine. The cancer has infected many institutions if not all. They are all willing to fight to the end and we are not
True that this moron got bounced due to plagiarism and nothing else. Harvard was too embarrassed and ridiculed by her plagiarism. Harvard was becoming a laughing stock.
She will write a whiny book, go on the speaker circuit, carry a light class load, and produce little new research.

“Claudine Gay’s Resignation From Harvard Isn’t The Victory The Right Thinks It Is”
Well actually it isn’t berceuse it will eventually be much bigger than most patriots and communists realize at this early point. There is little understanding of the system that one has to work through to gain and earned doctoral degree.
This probably includes the author as well.
The significance of this victory is that it is a crack in a sheet of fraudulent glass that will now only get wider until it collapses completely.
Doctoral degrees are public record in most states. The doctoral degrees that were granted in state run schools must be made available for inspection by anyone.
The state universities that know they are sitting on fraud will deny requests for inspection but that will only cause more suspicion and ultimately fail to a FOIA request.
Those who have been through this system know there is fraud and plagiarism in most dissertations. Most Masters theses will be no different.
The author thinks he is being clever but he is not.
Comments BUMP!
In short, the woman is a thief. She steals other people’s work and calls it her own. In my career I have written many dissertations and papers and have used other scholar’s writings or quotes because I thought they were profound. I always included their names and the title of their work in the bibliography however. Ms. Gay would be a perfect candidate to work in Biden’s administration since he is a plagiarist as well.
