Ousted Harvard President Claudine Gay speaks out for the first time since her resignation in a New York Times essay, playing down plagiarism allegations and revealing she has been bombarded with racist threats.
Gay, 53, resigned on Tuesday and is now revealing she has been threatened and attacked with hate speech.
Gay wrote, 'On Tuesday, I made the wrenching but necessary decision to resign as Harvard’s president. For weeks, both I and the institution to which I’ve devoted my professional life have been under attack.'

Did she write it. Or (as usual) it was somebody else’s words?

I don't know if death threats are hate speech. It depends on the circumstances.

But the Racist Multiple-times Plagiarist is STILL hauling down NINE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS A YEAR!
Gee, life sure is rough being an Unqualified Black Female Leftist at Haaaaaavvvvvaaaaadddddd.
I wonder who the Next Leftist will be who gets appointed by the Leftist Board?
On the other hand, who cares?
People now know that Haaaaaavvvvvaaaaaddddd is damaged goods, and that a diploma from there is a primarily a certificate that someone spent lots of money, but other than that, is it worth any more than a sheet from the little roll next to the Throne in everyone's restroom?
I don't think so.

If the same circumstances, with regards to her plagiarism, was a white male, who happened to also be a Republican, how would she, and the media, have reacted?
Would they have said it was no big deal, and that person should remain as president of the university?
Or, are they simply looking to make rationalizations, justifications and excuses?

So she is being treated as if she is a Jewish student at Harvard? I guess the context of hate aimed at her is different than the hate aimed at them.

I want to make sure I got this right. Students marching and physically threatening to kill Jewish students and calling for the genocide of an entire faith depends on ‘context’, but calling out plagiarism is hate speech?
And after being caught she draws $1 million a year????
Cry me an effing river!

If there were death threats or racist messages let’s see the evidence. Simply claiming that to get victim status is not enough. She is looking for somewhere to place the blame instead of where it belongs.

My Givvadamm-o-meter just blew up and started smoking. I accomplished a hundred times what this piece of garbage did during my lifetime and barely broke $100,000 in compensation. Playing the race card after the gift that was handed to her solely on her pigmentation is going to keep the pressure mounting on Harvard to boot her out the door totally and she will have deserved every bit of it. She was not demoted because she is black or because of her frequent plagiarism she was demoted because she is stupid.

She seems unfamiliar (and quite upset) with the concept of adult accountability. She knowingly committed plagiarism dozens of times, avoided meaningful consequences, and took a position for which she was unqualified due to her own lack of integrity.
Harvard could invite Dr. Carol Swain, whose work Gay lifted without attribution, to speak at Harvard, and make the attendance mandatory. It would be helpful for students to hear about the harms of plagiarism from the perspective of a real academic who was a victim. Bigotry is another form of distorted thinking. Dr. Swain could challenge students to examine their hostile treatment of fellow students who have done nothing to deserve it.

Well she has added a new term to the Lexicon. Whenever a plagiarist is caught s/he can claim a "Claudine" (like a Mulligan) and state, "I simply forgot some quotation marks."

Of course a "death threat" is perfectly protected speech according to the Harvard honor code unless it results in an actual death.

Plagiarism is the worst crime in academia. She made a career of it and should have been kicked out of Harvard when she was a Ph.D. candidate. She should be stripped of her degree.

I have to wonder...
So many fake racist attacks are perpetrated by the people reporting the attack - false flags, as it were. Has she REALLY been threatened?
If she has, she has my sympathies, somewhat. But an academic to an elite school should practically be able to walk on water. She is not a good example of anything, except a BAD example.

Harvard is not a legitimate institution. Like most universities today (especially the Poison Ivy League) it is another leftist, organized crime money laundering operation. Everything they do to to steal money and use it to oppress the victims of the theft. The democrat party is not really a political party, it is a mob racket. Rope, tree.

I suspect if she would LIE about her Plagiarism she would LIE about this. A death threat, in her sick mind, is likely a Jewish Student saying 'You need to STOP the THREATS', and Gay took that as a Threat to herself...and so goes the Sick Mind of a Leftist......
