What a laughingstock Harvard has become. It gets its knickers in a twist because it has been accused of fostering a climate of antisemitism — how unfair! —and it has tried every trick of legal legerdemain to avoid a lawsuit that would require it to submit to close inspection of its conduct, both toward Jewish […]
Harvard hires 24/7 security to protect pro-Hamas ‘Apartheid Wall’ featuring quote from terrorist
How long do you think a display criticizing jihad violence and Sharia oppression of women would last at Harvard? Five minutes? Ten? “Harvard Hires 24/7 Security To Protect Anti-Israel ‘Apartheid Wall’ Featuring Quote From Famous Terrorist,” by Kassy Akiva, Daily Wire, April 5, 2024: Harvard University is employing around-the-clock security to protect an anti-Israel “apartheid […]
At Harvard, Another Case of Plagiarism
There was Claudine Gay, the onetime Harvard President, who was a serial plagiarist, beginning with her dissertation and extending through seven of her eleven brief papers (she has no book), only one of which was peer-reviewed, that make up her scandalously small list of publications. Her extensive plagiarism was the main reason she was forced […]
Can Harvard Be Saved From DEI and a Debased Curriculum?
Harry Lewis has been at Harvard, man and boy, for fifty years. He’s a professor of computer science, and formerly Dean of Harvard. He has long been a Cassandra, a vox clamantis in deserto, alarmed about the state of education at Harvard, where he has registered the decline brought about by the madness of DEI (diversity, equity, […]
The Nitwits on Campuses Who Want an End to Israel
These campus nitwits and stormtroopers in posse endlessly chant their dislike — no, their hatred — for the tiny Jewish state, and their hope for its disappearance, with its Jewish population expelled or killed, so that it may be replaced by a twenty-third Arab state “from the river to the sea.” On the other hand, they […]
Harvard Invites Pro-Hamas Speaker
Former Harvard president Claudine Gay was recently pressured to resign after she failed to clearly state before a congressional committee that calling for the genocide of Jews would violate the school’s code of conduct, stating that it would “depend on the context.” Even more devastating to her continued tenure, she was found to be a […]
The Graves of Academe: ‘Harvard needs an Ethnic Studies concentration’ (#711 in a series)
An article in the Harvard Crimson bewails the absence of an “Ethnic Studies” concentration at the university. You can find it here. This was the overwhelming consensus reached by College students in a 2021 survey — one that [then-] incoming President Claudine Gay tacitly began to work towards as FAS Dean. But even the creation […]
Harvard’s Commitment to Allowing Unpopular Ideas to be Aired is Decidedly One-Sided
A professor of Middle Eastern studies has invited Dalal Saeb Iriqat, an extreme anti-Zionist and open supporter of Hamas and its October 7 attack to speak at the Kennedy School: “Harvard University Faces New Antisemitism Controversy with Invitation of Pro-Hamas Speaker,” by Dion J. Pierre, Algemeiner, February 7, 2024: …[Tarek Masoud] added, “For too long […]
Harvard to feature speaker who blamed Israel for Hamas’ Oct. 7 jihad massacre
First, Harvard’s former president refused to say that calls for a new genocide of the Jews would violate campus rules. And now this. Clearly Jew-hatred has become the norm at Harvard, and among the leftist intelligentsia in general. “Harvard to host Palestinian prof who blamed Israel for Oct. 7, called attacks ‘normal human struggle,’” by […]
Black Students at Harvard ‘Devastated’ by Claudine Gay’s Resignation, Solicitous of the Palestinians
Black students at Harvard appear to have convinced themselves that Gay was forced to resign not because of her serial plagiarism, but because of “racism.” More on their refusal to recognize her plagiarism as the reason for her resignation can be found here: “One Month Later, Black Harvard Affiliates Reflect on Gay’s Resignation,” by Summer […]
