Harvard's Leadership Under Scrutiny: Claudine Gay's Controversy and the University's Response
Originally Published 2 years ago — by Fox News
A student member of Harvard's Honor Council has called for the resignation of university president Claudine Gay in an op-ed, citing a double standard in handling her plagiarism allegations compared to the treatment of students accused of similar infractions. The student criticizes the university's decision to allow Gay to retroactively correct her work without facing the consequences typically imposed on students, such as suspension. Despite the allegations, Harvard's board continues to support Gay. The op-ed was published anonymously in the Harvard Crimson to protect the author from potential retaliation.
