Huh? That doesn't even make any sense. I'm assuming you don't get the joke.

 

More importantly, I'm not a maga or trumper. 30 seconds of searching will reveal I have been anti-trump from the beginning.

Assuming you don't know that Ismail Haniyeh is the leader of Hamas 

 

The implication being that she was plagiarizing him/parroting his ideas when refusing to condemn antisemitism outright when delivering her testimony before Congress.

 

I'm funny because she's a racist and and academic fraud.

 

Of course, you may be as well which could be why the joke was lost on you. ;)

Harvard has to deal with all this as well.  so do their wealthy donor alumni.  but the govt doesn't tell Exxon or big pharma or scumbags like Vivek what to do with their money once they've collected it.Archer Daniel Midlands gets billions in Ag subsidies.  R U calling for them to lower food prices from their profits?

 You sound like an absolute socialist....and here you're a trumper on everything else.  what you really want is what's best for you and your ilk, isms aside.  Not winning?  change the rules....i didn't realize til now what a victim you believe you are.  For the other anti establishment Maggots here it was obvious but you portrayed a veneer of success and some self pride.  guess not.....burn it all down and watch the devastation.  I just hope there's someone left to buy my house before I leave for greener pastures.

Of course Harvard has to deal with it. I wasn't under the illusion the government didn't already have rules, regulations and guidelines directing business to do things a certain way.  That said, if you're still clinging to the notion that the government "...doesn't tell Exxon..." what to do after the revenue comes in, we're simply wasting time here.  

 

One would have to be foolish to argue that there are not socialistic...tendencies inherent in our system.  Of course there are, and not all are necessarily good or inherently bad. Balance and moderation, sir.  That's the ticket if you ask me.  Absolutism be damned.      

 

I'm not sure how you ping-ponged from a conversation about Harvard, student loan debt, fair share and the greater good to Archer Daniel Midlands, Trumpers, maggots and victimization, but I'll leave work through the powerful emotions and thoughts you've shared with me today.   At the same time, I'll remember that reasonable people can disagree, and offer for your consideration:

based on your posts, your absolutes:

a conservative and possibly an authoritarian should be our next prez

banning books is ok

palestinians don't have a claim to their own independent nation

affirmative action is bs

Jan 6 was a minor event

immigrants should not be pitied and aided

women should not have the right to control their own bodies

t roosevelt is all knowing

It's fine that Russia interfered in our prez election

the CIA, FBI, DEA , FDA, HHS and CDC are crooked

endowments should not exceed an arbitrary amount chosen by u

 

Did I miss anything?

Comprehension.

Honesty.

Integrity.

Maturity.

Understanding.

Decency.

Good faith.

Morality.

 

There's more, but it really just boils down to a lack of character on your part.

Open season for plagiarism at Harvard. 

 

 

 

Those of you who have been out of university since before the golden age of the internet don't know how it is right now.

 

I served on my third-tier school's student conduct board, as a student representative. The way it worked is that if anybody accused a student of violating the conduct policy, that student would sit before a board consisting of one student, one faculty member, and one college staff member, usually a resident director or something like that. The board would hear the accuser, the accused, and witnesses called by both. Then the board would decide, by majority vote, whether that student did indeed violate the conduct policy. The disciplinary action taken as a result of a violation must be a unanimous decision.

 

By far, the majority of cases I sat to hear involved accusations of plagiarism leveled at a student by a member of faculty. In 100% of these cases, the faculty member discovered the plagiarism through some kind of internet plagiarism detector, which trawled through academic paper databases to find similarities between an uploaded (student) paper and one or more of the hundreds of thousands of published articles out there.

 

When I tell you that these profs brought up charges of plagiarism on the thinnest of "hits" from these detectors, I really mean it. Two or three similar sentence fragments, use of a particular word over another more common word, etc. Every time I hit "submit" on a paper, I hoped to God that I didn't somehow channel a sentence from a paper I had read early in the semester or something.

 

Anyway, on nearly all of these plagiarism cases, the faculty and staff members on the board would automatically vote for a finding of violation. Sometimes I agreed, other times not. But majority rules, so that was that for that student's grade that semester (at minimum).

 

I say all this to illustrate the assumption on at least one college campus: that students are guilty of plagiarism simply because some bot told the school that there was a certain amount of "similarity" between their paper and various published papers. Again, this was a small, third-tier school, and I doubt the attitude towards student plagiarism gets *less* rigid as you move up that ladder to the better institutions.

It's easier to point what you got close to getting right. 

 

I would prefer the next President be a conservative.  As for that being an "absolute", if it doesn't go that way, that president will be my President. 

 

I don't believe I've taken any significant stance on what you refer to as "book banning", but certainly believe that consideration should be given to what type of books are placed in elementary, middle and high schools.  I'd bet you think that, too, though dunderheadedness on your part likely precludes you from taking that position. 

 

Beyond that, what you wrote was a combination of silliness, gibberish and fabrication.

Gay had 11 academic papers published when she was appointed president of Harvard? Of friggin Harvard?!

 

:lol:

 

That's like getting to the All star game when you only played a handful of games as a backup.

 

Heck, even I have 13 published papers.

 

Tale of Two Harvard Presidents

In 2006, Harvard president Larry Summers was forced to resign.

His crime, among other things, was a speech he had given the year prior, in which he suggested that gender disparities in science and engineering might be the result of innate differences between men and women. The speech led to a furious backlash, and a no-confidence vote from Harvard faculty.

 

When Summers became president of Harvard in 2001, he boasted an impressive resume: He had served as the Secretary of the US Treasury, chief economist at the World Bank, and the youngest-ever Harvard economics professor to achieve tenure.

 

He had published six books and well over 100 academic articles. None of his work had ever been accused of plagiarism.

 

Fast forward to 2022: Harvard appoints Claudine Gay to serve as its newest president.

At the time, Gay had published a career total of 11 academic articles. For context, Summers published more than that in the single year of 1987.

 

Gay had never published an academic book. As David Randall of @NASorg noted when she was appointed, "very few professors can even get tenure with so thin a publication record — absent the tailwind from [diversity] quotas."

But Gay was able to ascend to the most prestigious position at the most prestigious university in the world.

 

Now, thanks to the reporting of @realchrisrufo and @realChrisBrunet, we know that Gay's anemic academic output wasn't even all hers. She lifted entire paragraphs of her work from other authors, without proper attribution.

As we saw with Larry Summers, Harvard presidents have been ousted for far less. But in spite of all that, the Harvard board is unanimously standing by Gay — and the legacy media is circling the wagons.

 

This is business as usual for modern academia: Political favoritism, racial preferences, and corrupt self-dealing. It's a racket. And if the polls are any indication, Americans are finally beginning to realize as much.

 

Sounds like a Joe clone give her time & maybe this person will run for POTUS ... They only want those that might look the part to others and not truly have any leadership skills just to be a figure head to put their agenda at the fore front of their term .

 

I bet Fitz could whip this person in a debate !!! GO BILLS !!!

  • BillsFanNC changed the title to Harvard: A Woke Joke And They're Hardly Alone. Gay Resigns As President

Hey guess what everyone.  Apparently Claudine Gay actually took some time over the past few weeks for some self reflection and has apologized for anti-Semitic comments, plagiarism and...

 

😂

 

Just kidding.  She actually came out with a fresh new perspective on all of this:

 

You're all racists for being appalled by anti-Semitism and rampant plagiarism by the president of friggin Harvard..

CNN posted her resignation letter. can't make it up.

 

https://www.cnn.com/2024/01/02/business/harvard-president-claudine-gay-has-resigned-read-her-resignation-letter/index.html

 

some highlights

 

 

Amidst all of this, it has been distressing to have doubt cast on my commitments to confronting hate and to upholding scholarly rigor—two bedrock values that are fundamental to who I am—and frightening to be subjected to personal attacks and threats fueled by racial animus.  -Race card and a lie as plagiarism isn't rigor.

 

When I became president, I considered myself particularly blessed by the opportunity to serve people from around the world who saw in my presidency a vision of Harvard that affirmed their sense of belonging—their sense that Harvard welcomes people of talent and promise, from every background imaginable, to learn from and grow with one another.  -- Guarantee she got the job based on talent and promise.   

 

So Diverse.  Entire career in Academia.  Went to Phillips Exeter Academy.

Can't wait to see what kind of minority they can find to be the next president. The only thing better than a black woman on their woke scale would be a black trans woman. Stay tuned!
