Harvard President Claudine Gay Faces Intensifying Plagiarism Probe

House Republicans are expanding their investigation into Harvard President Claudine Gay over allegations of plagiarism, as part of a broader backlash against college presidents. The investigation aims to determine whether Harvard holds its faculty to the same academic standards as its students. Earlier this month, Gay faced scrutiny over her response to questions about antisemitism on campus. The Harvard Board conducted an independent review of her published work and found a few instances of inadequate citation, but no violation of research misconduct standards.
