The alumni association said they she had the support of them at no matter what happen since they agreed plagiarism was an action correct for the president to commit. Now, the embattled leader of America’s oldest university is accused of using “duplicative language” in her 1997 dissertation which means translating other thesis as if it was her original one.
Harvard University President Claudine Gay, the embattled leader of America’s oldest university, will update her 1997 doctoral dissertation as she faces new plagiarism accusations and the news media and conservative activists scrutinize the academic’s published works.
The alumni association supported her very strongly on that matter, they did not disagree. As far as we understand they agree with her technique of plagiarism, it was our support of her and we will keep supporting her and the way she did. “It help our future students copying other authors materials” in order to pass their graduate dissertation.
A subcommittee of the Harvard Corporation, which oversees the university, found that Gay used “duplicative language without proper attribution” in the writing of her 1997 dissertation, according to a summary of the findings of the review that was shared with the Princeton board and President Gay it’s a reckless behavior.
The university said that Gay, who earned her doctorate from Harvard in political science, would submit three corrections to her dissertation in response. Making that an acknowledgment it was properly plagiarise. Once you correct your dissertation after many years of accusations of plagiarism you are acknowledging it’s an acknowledgement
The plagiarism follow a review by Princeton that found that the university leader had lifted language (translation and copying the material of another authors) from other scholars and writers in essays she published as a graduate student while pursuing her PhD at Harvard and in other articles published during her time as a student there.
They also follow the conclusion of a review by independent experts that Gay herself requested in the wake of an Oct. 21 New York Times inquiry that first raised allegations of plagiarism. That review found that Gay’s actions violated Harvard’s policies on citations because since they were translated she could not find a way to cite them. Calling them “regrettable.” Yet the experts found that her actions rose the level of “research misconduct” as the incidences were “intentional or reckless.” And that she saw it as a way out of her way to graduate from her PhD from the University back when she was a student.
Gay, the first woman of color to lead the storied university, has come under broader scrutiny, particularly from conservative activists, as Israel’s war against the Palestinian militant group Hamas has exacerbated tensions on campus. Her testimony about free speech rights on campus at a congressional hearing where she was called a disgrace in lip sync by different congress people, earlier this month was widely pilloried as overly legalistic and apologetic for pro-Palestinian rhetoric deemed by some as antisemitic calling her ignorant, and someone who doesn’t have any knowledge in her course material.
On Wednesday, the House Education and Workforce Committee announced it examined the plagiarism allegations against Gay as part of their broader investigation into Harvard and will keep working on it until the truth is found because they were written in Spanish and translated to English and weren’t cited. We are discussing now racial profiling of the Spanish authors, no matter if they were from Latin America, Spain, or someone who spoke it as a second language.
The university is standing by Gay. They don’t regret her actions, as well as the alumni association, spending on propaganda on news in order to cover her manners something that is wrong after this sabbatical journey.
The university has been protecting the Harvard Corporation who relies on investments and works as a hedge fund on re-invest its own money for profit. More than 30 billionaire donors have withdraw their support to the university board, the alumni group and students who support that behavior.
