Harvard President, DEI appointment, resigns in disgrace

Jacinda Ardern poses with incoming Harvard President Claudine Gay and outgoing President Lawrence Bacow. Ms Gay was forced to resign today after admitting to plagiarism, and also because she was under pressure for her tacit approval of violent anti-semitism at the University.

Claudine Gay is the first person of color and the second woman to be president of Harvard. She joined Harvard in 2006 and has specialised in political behavior with a focus on race and politics.

Ardern was last year invited by Bacow and Gay to take up two fellowships at Harvard. She will engage with students and faculty on building skills in “principled leadership” at the Kennedy School and at the Harvard Law School, (as a Knight Tech Governance Leadership Fellow) she will study ways to improve content standards and platform accountability for extremist content online.

Harvard suffered criticism earlier this year with former Maryland Governor Larry Hogan withdrawing from two fellowships in October citing a wave of dangerous anti-semitism on the campus.

The Wexner Foundation, who helped sponsor Ardern’s fellowships has also severed its links to Harvard, calling the University’s response to the Hamas attack “tiptoeing, equivocating” and a “dismal failure.” Long time financial supporters Israelis Idan and Batia Ofer have quit the Kennedy School’s executive board, citing similar concerns.

It is not known whether Jacinda Ardern has any reservations about her association with Harvard. Whereas Governor Hogan has shown he is a person of principle, I doubt we will see the same response from Ms Ardern.

Perhaps NZ legacy media could ask her about this when they eventually shake off their NYE hangovers.

    Ardern is inching her way to the top of Harvard where she can further the socialist elites indoctrination of the future leaders/influencers of the new world.
    Without doubt she wants to be at the big table of a new world order.

    Ardern, along with Hipkins, Robertson, and Bloomfield, should be fronting up to our courts for their ruination of New Zealand’s economic and health structure under the guise of Covid. Their mandated Pfizer vaccine is killing and maiming many of us, and still they are trying to drive a WEF/WHO/UN narrative.
    Ardern, it appears, will keep away from NZ for some time, but that will not help her. Where is her young girl . . . has she been cast aside as she is no longer a useful political pawn in her quest for a socialist controlled New Zealand?

    Leslie H Wexner was also associated with a “Mr.Epstein”. Doubtful that JA would be troubled by such trivia as she is likely to be sharing her podium at the Kennedy school with other notable characters of dubious beliefs also invited by the departing Claudine Gay to brainwash those admitted to the “school” were they are taught what to think and not how to think.

    It could almost be amusing, were it not so damned serious.

    “Claudine Gay . . . specialised in political behavior with a focus on race and politics.”

    Two more ‘useful idiot’ subjects. Since when has “race” been an academic subject?

    As for “specialised in political behaviour,” I can see why DEI is not spelled as DIE: the death of excellence, merit, achievement.

    As for comrade commissar Cindy’s chosen pet subject – “extremist content online.” Right.

    Who will define what’s extreme? For WEF graduate, subversive seditionists like comrade commissar Cindy, the truth about their evil, insurrectionist intentions shall be deemed as “extremist content!”

      One wonders how much influence this DEI appointment had on the awarding of Ardern’s fellowships at Harvard. Claudine Gay was not President at the time, (the other guy in the photo was) but she still held a senior position and would have no doubt had some say in it.

      Typical right? One leftist fraudster appointing another leftist fraudster.
