It's about time.

I thought her apology was very sincere after the questioning and her responses (unlike the other two presidents), but I can see why it's best that she resigned.

More charges of plagiarism over the weekend.
Essentially half of her published works have been shown to be plagiarized.
This would not be tolerated from a student.

Didn’t they vet her before hiring?

Her congressional testimony alone should have gotten her fired but this is what happens when you go too far. Someone will catch you slipping and you’ll pay the price.

Why should I give two shits about this?

Excellent start to 2024. When I read the headline, I couldn't help but hear Steam!
Go woke, go broke.

This looks SOOOO bad on the part of the board of the Harvard Corporation. At best, they look like idiots for not vetting and then for doubling down in defense when this stuff was trickling out.

Because that's the reason such an unqualified person was hired to begin with.

Not to mention that this started with her testimony before Congress.
And, Harvard was well aware of the accusations of plagiarism long before her testimony, but tried to cover it up.
It is very much political.

Her skin color was correct.

What else should they vet? Should they hire some Biologists to make sure she's a woman?

Since every top job in American has been dominated by so many dumb and mediocre white men, what is your excuse for that?

Hmm, how did America get so far when it was run by so many dumb and mediocre people? What makes the people running other countries so much smarter and top-shelf?
