Harvard President Claudine Gay has resigned after a disastrous, brief tenure at as head of the prestigious university.
In an email to colleagues today, she wrote that she was standing down after 'consultation' with the school's board, which has been under pressure to replace her after defending her congressional testimony about campus antisemitism.
She failed to acknowledge where she went wrong - making no mention of her refusal to condemn antisemitism as harassment at a December 5 congressional hearing or the mounting claims of plagiarism against her - but said she had been the victim of racist threats.
'It has become clear that it is in the best interests of Harvard for me to resign so that our community can navigate this moment of extraordinary challenge with a focus on the institution rather than any individual,' Gay wrote.
She said it had been 'frightening' to find herself the target of threats, and 'distressing' to have her character questioned.
Gay will be replaced by Alan M. Garber, Provost and Chief Academic Officer, who sat behind her at the infamous December 5 hearing, nodding as she made her remarks.
Her six month tenure as president is the shortest in the schools history.

Affumaive Action….the ruining of our country .
…
Affirmative Action is corrosive and destructive to those it intends to favor, because those who make it on their own merit will always be under a cloud of suspicion that it was not their ability that got them to where they are.
It is pretty clear this ex-Harvard POS is one of those. Oh, but she will get plenty of job offers.
She keeps her teaching job at Harvard 900k per year.
Very true…
…
And it looks damned good on this commie socialist CRT supporting , unAmerican idiot.
Woman, you are one Gay a-hole.
Why she was The Diversity Hire of the Century !!!
She doesn’t have an ace in the hole, ‘cause she doesn’t have a full deck. Race is the only card she can play. High fives all around.
Winner 🏆🏆🏆
“distressing’ to have her character questioned”
You can’t make this $hit up, but she can.

Viva Frei
Claudine Gay IS OUT!
“I wonder if Monopoly has a POC version with Community Chest and Chance race cards?”
And the “go to jail” square has been removed from the board.
"He needs to go too" Whoever the mover and shakers were that forced her out should now go after the entire Harvard Corp. Board. They covered, lied for her, and sent a scumbag law firm after the Media that broke the story.

True. Nice.
She wouldn’t have to worry about “racism” if she went home to Haiti.
The only reason she got that Harvard job is because she was black.
That just makes her humiliation more complete.
And that is forever.
