The crowning achievement of that effort […]
Bret Stephens NY Times, Jan. 2, 2024 “… dehumanization is the price any institution pays when considerations of social engineering supplant those of individual achievement.” I had written and filed a column about Harvard and its president, Claudine Gay, when news of her resignation broke on Tuesday afternoon after fresh allegations of plagiarism in her published work.

Jonathan Tobin National Post, Jan. 3, 2023 “The reason why Gay was so vulnerable to criticism wasn’t just the testimony but the fact that her career embodied everything that is wrong about an ideology helping to fuel the surge in antisemitism in the United States.” In the end, not even the support of former U.S. […]
