Harvard's first black president resigns

Post by Traveler »

She only lasted 6 months. She's the shortest serving president in Harvard's 387 year history. She resigned over charges of plagiarism and mishandling of anti-semitism on campus. A lot of her published works had passages of text copied from other sources which she presented as her own writing.

"Harvard University president Claudine Gay was hit with six additional allegations of plagiarism on Monday in a complaint filed with the university, breathing fresh life into a scandal that has embroiled her nascent presidency and pushing the total number of allegations near 50."

A student could be suspended or expelled for such conduct, but she's allowed to resume teaching African American studies at Harvard after her resignation.
