Leavitt Previews Trump's Thursday Election Speech

After weeks of criticism related to her comments regarding on-campus anti-Semitism and allegations of plagiarism in her scientific work, Harvard President Claudine Gay resigned on Jan. 2.

For an in-depth discussion on Ms. Gay’s resignation, NTD heard from William Jacobson, a Cornell Law School Professor and the founder of The Equal Protection Project.

He said it may not be easy for Harvard University to rebuild its reputation given the nature of the allegations made against its president.

"It's very difficult, because she was not the problem," said Mr. Jacobson. "She was a symptom of a deeper problem at Harvard and many other elite schools, particularly in the Ivy League, which is that they have embraced a racialization of education under the name of diversity, equity, and inclusion.

"It is poisonous throughout the system. It takes away from merit, it takes away from advancement of all people equally without regard to race."
