"University Presidents' Failures: A Shocking Lack of Moral Leadership"

Former Vice President Al Gore criticized Harvard President Claudine Gay for her "tone-deafness" during congressional testimony on antisemitism, expressing shock at her comments that calling for the genocide of Jews would not constitute harassment. Gay, along with the presidents of MIT and the University of Pennsylvania, faced criticism and calls to resign for their handling of antisemitism on their campuses. Gay and Magill attempted to clarify their statements after the hearing, but Magill ultimately resigned. Gore called for clarification and respect for all communities in the country.
