"Harvard in Turmoil: Leadership Crisis and Calls for Change Amid Scandals"
Harvard President Claudine Gay faces intense criticism from students and calls for her resignation over allegations of plagiarism in her academic work, including her doctoral dissertation and other papers. Students are highlighting a perceived double standard in academic integrity between students and faculty, with some defending Gay as others, including billionaire Bill Ackman and conservative activist Christopher Rufo, amplify the controversy. Harvard's governing board has acknowledged the issue and corrections are being made, while the House Education and Workforce Committee continues its investigation into the matter.
