[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP I saw the story about Harvard Gay scandal on the TV news in France. It was hardly a little tiny story the world ignores. [/quote]

The Harvard brand is super old and much larger than any individual.

[b]If you think firing a President who has been there less than a year because she may have copied work will dilute the brand, good luck with that.

It's not quite that.  I'm a Harvard alum.  I was unhappy with her selection and did not go or watch the inauguration.When I heard of it and studied it it was clear she was unqualified and a  weakling put in place because of her skin color AND her area of study (DEI) in which her research is NOT IMPRESSIVE.   (I  am personal friends with  black members of the board).  I am sick of DEI taking over our universities.  She was never qualified either from academic standing or LEADERSHIP standing - she had NEVER been the head of a university like Harvard.  Yet the board/Harvard Corporation pushed her on us.  All in the name of DEI. I was disgusted with this back in July when her appointment was announced; disgusted at the inauguration; disgusted when she was absent when the first pro-Palestinian protest occurred.  She has been, in my mind, utterly useless and irresponsible as a Harvard President.  We all saw this coming, but not the plagiarism.  I knew her work was incredibly weak but the Harvard Corporation (yes I have associates on it) NEEDED to have her president for obvious reasons and went forward.  Read up on her background.  There is no racism here.  She was always a bad candidate for Harvard, and any other institution for that matter.[/quote]

She's done a great service. Gay should have stayed. Don't say she was a mediocre scholar who never belong in the same league as Harvard.   Her record as a #1 cheater is absolutely fitting for one of the most corrupt institutions in the world. [/quote]

I think the previous PP is one of those political posters.  How many times did they include "DEI?" Definitely trying to wage a negative image campaign there.  So tired of people using this board to advance a political agenda. [/quote]
