TL;DR Summary

Billionaire investor Bill Ackman's campaign against Harvard president Claudine Gay over allegations of antisemitism and threats to Jewish students on campus is fueled not only by his concerns but also by long-held personal grievances. Ackman, an alumnus who has donated tens of millions of dollars to Harvard, resents that university officials have not heeded his advice on various topics. While his campaign failed to remove Gay from her position, it has sparked a debate about antisemitism at universities and the influence of major donors. Ackman aims to be a "positive force" at the school, but critics argue that wealthy donors should not have undue influence over universities.
