Should she be fired?

If true, I think they should terminate her employment effective immediately.

She's just aping the Plagiarist-in-Chief's M.O.
 
Christopher Rufo....I remember this right-wing activist.

Didn't he invent the controversy over CRT?
 
Who is Christopher Rufo?
 
Absolutely not. She said nothing wrong, and is an excellent leader at Harvard. Stefanik purposefully asked her "trick" questions to trip her, while at the same time made Stefanick get more recognition from people who don't know any better.
Same goes for the U. Of Penn. leader. None of them are REMOTELY anti-semetic.............................this whole thing was a joke.. Those two got "Swift-Boated"

There are two sides, pro public education and the preserve the low educational attainment level of the state voting majorities Trump
won in 2020. Rufo's job is to preserve the electability of the candidates invested in by the wealthiest donors to the G.O.P. No state with
a voting majority earning 36% batchelor's degrees or higher voted for Trump in 2020.

I wonder how many got that? *cute*
It was pretty shocking testimony in front of Congress from the Presidents of Universities triggers.
These are the crowd that gets people banned for political statements, and DEI enforcement- "you cant say that"

Yet they allow violent chants supporting Hamas, or wiping out Israel because of "context"

Read these two passages side by side. Gay is directly referencing Bobo and Gilliams work. She's not plagiarized it, she's discussing it and even uses quotation marks.

Thanks for finding and posting this.

Looks as if Rufo has out-and-out lied. Too bad there won't be any consequences for his pathetic smear.
 

Get ready for the Oh, so original shoot the messenger rebuttal.

Btw, the evidence by Xer Russo might be legit. It now needs to go under more scrutiny, so we know for sure.

The other thing I noticed is that there's no link to the full pages, or the full paper. Any citations Gay included (and she would have as she is directly referencing other research) are cut off.
 
She should be allowed to keep her job, but have her PhD revoked. That is blatant plagiarism. Almost as bad as when Biden plagiarized his 1988 speech when ran for President, only he was not awarded a doctorate for his plagiarism. He was forced out of the campaign.

Her position as President does not require a PhD to hold that position. So she should keep her job, but have her PhD revoked for plagiarism.
 
It's not plagiarism at all. She is discussing the work of Bobo and Gilliams.

Of course it is blatant plagiarism. It is obvious even to a blind man. Only a partisan hack could possibly believe otherwise.

Look up. Read post #10.

It has been scrutinized. Rufo lied.

Read post #10. Then tell us, specifically - by copying and pasting particular sentences/excerpts - what makes it "plagiarism".

It's not. She refers to them by name and uses quotation marks to highlight the statements she's addressing.

Which is what you're supposed to do when you are referencing/citing/quoting another's work.

It's as if some posters here have no familiarity with books, newspapers, magazines...and maybe stopped attending school after the 5th grade or so.
