    Having received more than uS$160 million of taxpayer money in 2023, it's important: as #ClaudineGay would say,
    I want some "context, give it to me!

  3. Harvard has published details of its investigation of former president Claudine Gay. Here's what the school did and the one misstep it made.

    " two presidential task forces: one devoted to combating antisemitism..."

    Prof Fried couldn't have been more emphatic in his support of #claudinegay 's allowing students to advocate a #genocide against Jews as a #freespeech and #constitution issue. Anything else would mean that #harvard endorsed #antisemitism -- which, of course, couldn't possibly be the case.

    Prof Fried's op-ed eloquently advocates this understanding of policy across #academia .

    "...her disastrous congressional testimony about antisemitism at Harvard..."

    No, her excellent articulation of #freespeech , as explained by Prof Fried, who agreed that both students and faculty, as per the #firstamemdment , are free to call for #genocide against Jews from #harvard . I for one encourage Harvard to double down on this free speech stance by publishing some editorials from terrorists.

    #Billionaire #HarvardAlum #HedgeFund A-Hole who led the drive to oust those female college presidents for alleged #AntiSemitism and boosted #plagiarism #accusations against ousted #Harvard prez #ClaudineGay is angry people are now leveling similar accusations against his own wife, another #IvyLeague female academic at #MIT

    The prolific #PershingSquare #investor and anti #DEI #blowhard has said of himself “If I think I’m right, I can be the most persistent and most relentless person in America.”

    But he apparently has a thin skin over his wealthy but thick skull too...

    Much of Ackman's latest ire is directed at #BusinessInsider who first published claims Ackman's wife used uncited passages of others works without retribution.

  9. Accusations of plagiarism have become the latest weapon in the culture wars, wielded for political purposes rather than because of a commitment to academic integrity. Vox's Constance Grady unpacks what the term means, and why technology has made everything more complicated. "New tools are available to both good-faith and bad-faith actors, and that means we are at the beginning of a very messy new era indeed," she says.

  10. Surprise, surprise. The "experts" who allegedly found problems with past research of #ClaudineGay, work closely and publish with the long-discredited eugenics movement known as "scientific racism".

    "Rufo’s pursuit of Gay is widely credited in helping bring about her resignation."

    "...if calling for the genocide of Jews is disruptive of the educational environment, it is a violation of the codes of conduct, even if it would otherwise be constitutionally protected political speech."

    And yet the author is unable to provide a context where such a #civilright s violation isn't deserving of an investigation by the #fbi .

    Over on bird site, there’s an entire thread of #oxman lifting full paragraphs from students’ theses word for word, very few changes, no attribution.

    Also, she’s marketing herself/work as an #architect, which is illegal to use that title in MA. In some USA states, representing that you are an architect when not licensed is a felony.

  13. “Business Insider…reported how Neri Oxman, a former MIT professor whose billionaire husband led the crusade that forced out the president of Harvard under accusations of plagiarism, had herself engaged in sloppy research that could similarly be described as plagiarizing.…But rather than celebrating its outlet’s achievement, Business Insider‘s owner is launching an investigation into the reporting on Oxman.”

  14. "A lot of people are talking about plagiarism and academic integrity right now, who weren’t talking about it as much or in the same way as they were when for example Neil Gorsuch, who will soon decide if an insurrectionist fascist can appear on presidential ballots, was being considered for the Supreme Court."

    ~ A.R. Moxon

  15. Written by a research integrity specialist this article is a worthwhile read for anybody interested in the real meat among the allegations to Claudine Gay, the Harvard President until recently.

    Scroll down to the section 'The Allegations' for examples and reasoned interpretations and judgments by this specialist.

    One example: she is being accused of plagiarism in her acknowledgements :ablobsadpats: .

  16. "When asked whether they would discipline students (or, I suppose, faculty) if they called for the genocide of Jews, each president responded that the answer depends on the context of the utterances."

  22. To her opponents, Harvard's #ClaudineGay’s crime was not knowing her place

    The first Black president in Harvard’s 387-year-old history was subjected to the latest, most prominent example of KnowYourPlace aggression.

    That may be true, but there’s another way that the attacks on #Gay prove to be bigger than her and Harvard. The first-generation American of Haitian parents who became the first Black president in #Harvard’s 387-year-old history was subjected to the latest, most prominent example of #KnowYourPlace aggression, a backlash of violence — both literal and symbolic, both physical
