Well, if you had bothered to google before you post and pass judgement, you would know that Summers was out on leave last November (there was most definitely an announcement)and Dershowitz left the law school in 2013.

And, Dershowitz has done nothing wrong but represent Epstein - as a professional lawyer would. Ask any lawyer. Each side has to have counsel. Dershowitz talks about it often in his podcast.


+1 and Nowak was put on leave in 2020. Farkas is not an employee - just chair of the Hasty Pudding club. There is a big story in Harvard Magazine about what Harvard is doing now in light of recent events. You could have found that, too, if you bothered to google before presuming.


I did google and learned the following which is why I asked in the first place:

from Wikipedia
In response to the revelations of Epstein's support of Nowak and his lab (the Program for Evolutionary Dynamics), in 2021 Nowak was suspended from supervising undergraduate research for two years, and the institute was permanently closed.[33][34] Harvard's review, leading to the suspension, uncovered that Epstein had maintained access to a personal office in Nowak's lab for 9 years, even after his conviction for sex crimes, and used the office over 40 times, "typically accompanied by young women serving as his assistants".[35]
In 2023, Harvard lifted the sanctions against Nowak, and he remains on the faculty, jointly appointed in the Department of Mathematics and the Department of Organismic and Evolutionary Biology.[36]

What does "out on leave mean" doesn't sound very consequential.

It has and it is. Read. Feb 12, 2026 of Harvard Magazine. Dershowitz left more than a decade ago and is not a bad actor in this. https://www.harvardmagazine.com/university-news/harvard-epstein-probe-donors


Yes, thank you for posting the most objective/definitive source on derwhowitz. /s

Maybe the Trump administration should insist that Harvard cut those ties or threaten to withhold federal funding.

Oh, wait...

Seems Harvard's internal review was not very robust. You would think they would know how to do research being Harvard and all...

Any of them tenured there? If yes, it may be much harder than you think. J. Levine actually won millions from Met when they tried to “do the right thing” in the hysteria of Me Too.
