So plagiarism is ok? Particularly, if the goal is to get a DEI candidate. How demeaning. Guess it depends on context, aina?

No it's not.  Why would you minimize alleged plagiarism made by Bill Ackman's wife?

<looks at her picture>

Ahhh...nevermind. I know why.

MIT is next, hey?

I really hope not, but it seems inevitable. But, I'm on record saying I did not want Magill to resign. I didn't want Gay to be forced out either, but unfortunately for her she played fast and loose with academic integrity in a position that should be held to the highest standard in that regard. I did read that the original writer of one of the recent examples of plagiarism said he didn't think Gay did in fact plagiarize. Seems to me there is a lot of this in academia and in this case it was used to get Gay out. Not everyone who plagiarizes, though, just when an opportunist comes a callin'.

It will be interesting to see if the MIT president is also replaced by a white man. A clean sweep for Ackman and his cronies. Although, I understand these are interim choices.

Why? That hire would be making it up to the real victims in all this.

agree  plagiarism is plagiarism but 50 instances is not one.   Both should suffer the consequences though

Right back at ya. Ackman is now calling for all the Trustees to resign. Early admission apps are down 17%. Jewish families are opting for schools like Vandy, Wash U and Emory because they fear for their children's safety in Cambridge. Harvard will not be fine, hey?

Why isn't Ackman calling for his plagiarist wife to resign?

She's part of the most protected class in America - rich, white people.

Well, there were at least four instances in her thesis, not one. Who knows what might be found in her other work.

But really, I don't care all that much about plagiarism in academiia. Neither does anyone else here.

Oh, I definitely don't. But I do care about hypocrisy.

I wonder if Gay would allow any of her employees to shave their heads in solidarity with friends going through cancer treatment?

There were multiple posters here up in arms about Gay's plagiarism (and definitely NOT her responses to the Israel questions).

If logic and values hold true, those same posters will be up in arms about Mrs. Ackman's alleged plagiarism.

I won't hold my breath

Antisemitic idiot, aina?

He is. Reminds me of so many of the antisemites, and supporters of antisemitism, you constantly back. Except that he's Black, so you certainly would never support him.
