"MIT President Faces Turmoil, Pledges Policy Review Amidst Resignation Calls"

Sally Kornbluth, president of MIT, has managed to maintain her position despite the recent ousting of her counterparts at Harvard and the University of Pennsylvania following a congressional hearing on antisemitism. While facing criticism, including from Representative Elise Stefanik, Kornbluth has not been subjected to the same level of pressure from donors and alumni. The MIT Jewish Alumni Alliance has expressed dissatisfaction but prefers to work with the administration rather than call for resignations. Kornbluth's direct responses to congressional questioning and subsequent actions to address concerns about antisemitism on campus have garnered support from the MIT administration and helped mitigate some of the backlash.
