  1. “Rufo, a close ally of Florida’s governor, Ron DeSantis, and one of America’s most prominent activists fighting so-called ‘wokeism’…has been credited in conservative media and beyond with playing a central role in the ouster of former Harvard University president Claudine Gay, who is Black.”

    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.

  6. #TIL Who the F is #BillAckman and why should I care?

    #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.

  7. As the Claudine Gay and Neri Oxman stories begin to wind down, we have to look at what's next for both of them and academia at large.

  8. 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.

  9. 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 .

  11. @jbhall56
    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.

  12. “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.”

  13. Plagiarism has long been a powerful weapon in politics, however, now the weaponization of plagiarism is expanding and targeting new people.

  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: .

  17. "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."

  18. Neri Oxman has to be pissed at her husband going after academics for not being pro Israel enough, now has to deal with her plagiarizing dissertation being exposed

  19. The story keeps getting funnier, from a sad start: it turns out that the lead #Harvard donor campaigning for the ouster of President #ClaudineGay for plagiarism is married to a scholar who plagiarized in her own PhD, including quoting Wikipedia without attribution. How dumb do you need to be to copy and paste from Wikipedia?

  20. Re #ClaudineGay, the presidency at an educational institution should be about academic principles/excellence. She was perfect in the hearing on that front imo (after failing to defend conservative voices for years). The job should not be about being the best academic, as plenty of geniuses would make terrible admins etc. It also shouldn't be about fundraising/politics as it is now, cause that may lead to compromises re the pursuit of "truth". She should have lost her faculty position instead.

  21. "What has happened at Harvard is not just a blueprint for taking over higher education; it is a strategy for taking over our information environment."

    ~ Tressie McMillan Cottom

  22. "It should not surprise any of us that the same people who refuse to call for a ceasefire in Gaza and who support the genocide of Palestinians are the same people who would threaten the safety of a Black woman. All of these actions are motivated by racism. Zionism, just like anti-Black racism, is a product of white supremacy. They motivate and reinforce each other."
