Lol, would be funny is they have to eat crow as the uncover more of her plagiarism. Cause apparently those on the internets are going to go through all of her published work to check, they already finding instances in other, Dr. Carol Swain been mentioned, a professor at university of Miami also speaking out.
They NYT article covering for her is hilarious. The NYT literally say all instances of plagiarism are not equal, but actual faculty said that students doing the same thing were disciplined, sometimes harshly. Like, that is a clear double standard.
Anyways, if it becomes evident that she is clearly a fraud, all the people who stood up for her will lose credibility (they already have).
The university started an investigation after receiving accusations in October as its president, Claudine Gay, was being criticized for her response to antisemitism on campus.

The Harvard Corporation’s statement on Dr. Gay does not use the word “plagiarism.” But some members of Harvard’s faculty said they were disturbed by the passages highlighted in news coverage, saying students who committed similar infractions were often disciplined, sometimes harshly.
“It’s troubling to see the standards we apply to undergrads seem to differ from the standards we apply to faculty,” said Theda Skocpol, a professor of government.
A Harvard guide for students defines “plagiarism” broadly. “When you fail to cite your sources, or when you cite them inadequately, you are plagiarizing, which is taken extremely seriously at Harvard,” it says. “Plagiarism is defined as the act of intentionally OR unintentionally submitting work that was written by somebody else.”
But not all instances of potential plagiarism are equal, particularly when they do not reflect any intention to deceive, some scholars said.
