We are led to believe that it is almost impossible to get into the Ivy League schools nowadays (according to the College forum you have to be at least “double-hooked”), the selection is so fierce and still some complete idiots are getting in? How?


Wait - a child used a slur?? ON CAMPUS?!?

We must hunt them down! Identify and shame that child, publicly!! Deprive them of a career! Banish them and their family forever!!

ZERO tolerance for freedom of expression on campus!


There are no children on a college campus.


Age 26 and below = child, at least under D.C.’s definition of “youthful offender.”

Ergo, a child is now anyone under the age of 26.


Research from the Ivies backs up the fact that children’s brains are not fully developed until age 26 or so.


Speak for your own immature, coddled "children" whose criminal behaviors are given a pass.

I seriously doubt keeping her job was ever a question.

Yes there are. My child is currently studying at a 4 year university.


Stop infantalizing adults who know better. This is ridiculous.

Are you referring to President Gay?

If so, it appears she plagiarized her dissertation:

Equally disturbing as the plagiarism is the fact that every single thing she writes seems to be about race. According to the article she is a mean nasty bully who got where she is by playing identity politics, along with cheating. I’m sure she would come down like a ton of bricks on a “privileged” student who did just once what she has done her whole career. Way to go Harvard, you have transitioned into a national joke.


Rufo is piling on and reaching.


I don’t know who Rufo is, but he/she seems to speak truth. Are you defending President Gay? Go ahead then and explain why she is a good person to be President of Harvard.


Well, you should look into him. He is a notorious, disingenuous anti-CRT crusader. He intentionally impoverishes the discourse through obfuscation. His co-author is a hack who couldn't cut it as an economist and has resorted to publishing hit pieces on minority and female academics out of some misplaced sense of injustice. They both saw this as an opportune time to pile on and oust a "woke" President. They don't care about plagiarism and these "offenses" aren't even serious. Her own dissertation advisor is someone that she's is alleged to have plagiarized and he is standing in defense of her.

I know three Harvard professors and they both say she is a good administrator, even if her publishing record is sparse. She switched to administration early on in her career and became a worker of the system rather than a prolific academic. Maybe not the most charismatic, but not what she is being painted out to be either. I'm sure her race didn't hurt either, given Harvard's recent bad press. She has overwhelming support from the faculty though, admittedly, they are but one constituency of stakeholders at the University.

Huh? Now we’re stretching affirmative action to mean that minorities can plagiarize and be judged by different standards than other students?
According to critical social justice, because of slavery, black people are oppressed and can do no wrong. If they do some thing that would normally be considered wrong, it's called justice. This is insane and illiberal but it's what most progressives believe.


What is "critical social justice"?

I’ve said this on threads before and I’ll say it again. The pendulum is due to swing back from this madness. Yes, people actually believe this. And the belief caught some traction. But it’s not going to last. It can’t. Sanity will prevail.

I was watching Fox News when they broke the story. They immediately brought on a black person to start screaming about how she only kept her job because of her race.

Actually, these types of parents know their children best. That's why they make excuses for their children's poor decisions. They know it's all that can be expected of them.

They’re likely not wrong.

How did the USA become so much more radical left since the 50s? It seems McCarthy massively understated how many communists are here .

Have any serious donors threatened to pull money from Harvard?

It's not just her race. That may be a part of it, but it's also the money and the newness of the appointment. Harvard would look like clowns if they removed her so soon after just having appointed her to much fanfare.

All of that could be true but the plagiarism should be obvious on its face if it’s true. The origin of the plagiarism accusation doesn’t really matter if the accusation is substantiated.

Then again, Stanford continued to employ Marc Tessier-Lavigne as President long after there was substantial evidence he falsified data in his published studies, while in the same time period driving its own star goalie to suicide through their student disciplinary process. So I suppose these institutions have a long history of protecting cheating professors while destroying students who do far less wrong. Harvard can keep a cheater as president; Stanford did for years. It’s the students they kick out for minor infractions, not administrators that cheat.

Of course she has the support of the faculty. Tessier-Lavigne did too. The faculty want their own cheating to be inconsequential as well. I suspect a plagiarism study of many of them would yield problematic results.

Where do you get your talking points? It's kind of funny that you're accusing these universities of being communists when they are bankrolled by titans of capitalism and run like hedge funds.
