Two months after the Hamas attack in Israel, the Harvard president’s hearing caused an outcry. Claudine Gay considered that the call for the genocide of the Jews did not necessarily violate the regulations of her establishment. She ended up resigning on Tuesday January 2, she is suspected of plagiarism.
She managed to save her head after a controversy linked to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. But Claudine Gay, president of the University ofHarvard in the United States, is today overtaken by an accusation of plagiarism: she resigns. At the beginning of December, he was first criticized for his comments before the American Congress. She declared that the call for the genocide of the Jews by certain students did not necessarily violate the regulations of her establishment. A few days later, Claudine Gay apologized and remained in office.
Accused of plagiarism
But on Tuesday January 2, accusations of plagiarism on his old work surfaced. Since the October 7 attacks in Israel, American universities have been torn apart over the conflict. The number of anti-Semitic and Islamophobic acts has jumped. A few weeks ago, it was the president of the University of Pennsylvania who had to submit her resignation.
