Harvard president Claudine Gay has been hit with 40 fresh allegations of plagiarism, with claims that she lifted 'entire paragraphs' in her academic writing.
The new allegations were first published in a shocking report from the Washington Free Beacon and span seven publications authored by Gay, ranging from missing quotation marks around a few phrases or sentences to entire paragraphs lifted verbatim.
It comes as the House Committee on Education and the Workforce announced that it's widening the scope of it' probe into Gay, according to a letter written by Rep. Virginia Foxx. The committee had already opened a probe into antisemitism at the Harvard campus following Gay's testimony

I guess we can start calling this black privilege. Any white guy won't even be considered for the job if this kind of cheating had occurred.

She seems like another leftist creation (think ovomit). It's done with white people too; it's just that it works best with people of color. You can call their accusers racist and make it all go away. Remember the left would love a race war, and they'd love to keep conservatives chasing squirrels worried about reverse racism. They've already duped so many blacks into hating and being racists towards white and Asian people. The real destruction that's happening all over the world is being done by a few and the majority of them are powerful, evil, demonic white men (and China). They want US to focus on the low level stuff while they're busy plotting to destroy us all. It helps them if we want to destroy each other; it means that's one less thing for them to worry about.

'DOCTOR' Gay is not just an embarrassment to Harvard. She has lost it money (lots of money) and both as a (undeserved) graduate and as well its head, she has lessened its stature - perhaps permanently. Colleges everywhere are facing business' realization that degrees aren't always necessary and may in fact be a sign of foolish indoctrination. The enormous debt Ivy League schools leave their grads is no longer worth it.

Too bad she has no shame or this affirmative action hire would have resigned by now. One would think that academia would have a few standards left given that original work is required at all levels of education, or at least it used to be. I remember being called out by my 7th grade Spanish teacher for copying a sentence in my report before I even knew what plagiarism was. Apparently those checked boxes as boldly listed by #3 is all it takes to become the president of most anything these days.

I can sense the fear at Harvard...here's their first black, female president and she's a serial plagiarist. No doubt she was chosen for all the wrong reasons and now any naysayers have been proven right. Further, she sets the black academic movement back decades with her behavior. That said, what will it take for Harvard to own up to their mistake and rectify it? Leftists are known for sticking to their useless policies so it's anybody's guess as the whether they will rectify this mistake.

Gay is not a lesbian. She is married to a white man. It's funny how she spouts such anti-white speech while married to a white man. Michelle Wu, the mayor of Boston who had a Holiday party for minority employees only is also married to a white man. Even Lori Lightfoot the past mayor of Boston who said she would only give interviews to reporters of color was "married" to a white woman.
I would not want my spouse to make racist remarks about me. But that's what's happening.

The leadership of Harvard is as guilty as she is. If not more so. Is Harvard a fraud?

I'm all in favor of exposing the hypocricy and dishonesty of the leftists by any means possible, but I don't understand the basis for a congressional investigation. Congress is the legislative body of government. Shouldn't this be under the auspices of the executive branch?

Congress…how about a budget? Better yet, a balanced budget. How about closing the barn door on illegals? Oh…I see how important it is to have Congress replace the role of school trustees…to do the little things not in the wheelhouse of. Congress, and let the truly important slide.

Harvard should probably just shut up and stop trying to defend her. They just look foolish. Gay is a racist. She’s a Jew hater. She’s a plagiarist. She’s also a black lesbian. She isn’t going anywhere. If Harvard would rather destroy their reputation and lose some major donors than fire Gay you have your answer about them.

Plagiarism is born of laziness. It takes work to cite and list sources. That it is rampant in universities is no surprise. Imagine how long this woman has been doing it.

Poster #11 mentions the naysayers. May I elaborate on that.
By now, it should be an axiom that the naysayers: deplorables, right-wing nazis, homophobes, white racists, et al, are ahead of the curve: be it covid, the ‘shots’, Russian conspiracy, the laptop, Ukrainian corruption,...everything. It's no wonder we've been, and continue to be, marginalized or eliminated.

In my experience in private industry, almost every affirmative action hire was a plagiarist. They weren't smart enough to write their own stuff, so they stole it from other people. I saw entire paragraphs lifted from my own reports in someone else's work.

SO MANY good comments!
That Gay broad is not going anywhere.
Competency is of no importance.
Plagiarism is of no importance.
Haaaavard has been taken over by the Hard Left, and she 'checks the right boxes'.
-She's Black, so anyone criticizing her can be demonized as a 'Raaaacccccciiiiissssst'.
-She's female, so anyone criticizing her can be demonized as a 'Sexist' or 'Misogynist'.
But that's just camouflage.
The ESSENTIAL factor is that she's a Screaming Leftist.
The Leftists running Haaaaavard will never apologize, it's not in their arrogant 'Better than Thou' natures.
No, they'll draw from their -what is it, $50 Billion$ - endowment. They can sit this out, even if they lose some donations.
The destruction of the reputation of what was perhaps the foremost institution of learning in America is not their concern, although that reputation, built on decades of excellent past work by previous generations is, when one thinks about it, is the foundation, the only real item of value that the whole place possesses, and in the long term, destroying that reputation will lead to the downfall of the whole operation.
May it happen sooner than later.
See 'Bud Light', see 'Disney'.

There are many competent, honest black scholars. Why did this Harvard board pick Ms. Gay who is neither competent nor honest?

Affirmative Action folks have generally been pushed far, far beyond their actual abilities to perform, and probably in desperation to pretend to be something that they are not and cannot be.....they steal ideas and words from ACTUAL great thinkers and writers so that they can pretend to be great when they are mediocre or even less.
Affirmative Action is public FRAUD, and very few are fooled.
The saddest part is that ACTUAL skilled, talented blacks and minorities and women find it difficult to get the automatic assumption of competence and being deserving of their positions, whether it be airline pilot or stock broker, or doctor.....because we ALL know that huge numbers of unqualified people have been put into positions of power and importance who never met the requirements - except for some special minority status.
So - that highly qualified airline pilot or doctor with black skin or female anatomy is distrusted until they prove themselves - to each individual that they meet, one at a time. THAT is the biggest crime of Affirmative Action.
That and the dead bodies that incompetent pilots and surgeons leave in their wake.

This iteration might be enough for Claudine to "take on some special project" that gets her out of the way at no loss in salary,

The black female professor who accused Gay of stealing her work has said that if she were a white man, she would be fired by now. Read this morning that another rich donor has stopped the flow of dollars to Harvard. It may take a while, but she is toast.
