So, when a white MIT professor wife of an oligarch plagiarizes, she can "apologize for these errors" AND "ask the university they work for to make any necessary corrections." This seems VERY FUCKING DIFFERENT from what just happened to the BLACK WOMAN president of Harvard.
@StillIRise1963 Not long ago Nikole Hannah Jones was denied UNC tenor. Howard U wasted no time snapping her up. Being Black in higher ed is a thankless job. One of my fav profs taught Historical US Lit. She included lots of slave narratives. She was smart as a whip and took no shit. As an aid, I watched how she was treated as a Black female academic. Other women profs were considerably more respectful. The white males treated her like she worked for them instead of alongside them. @mekkaokereke
@StillIRise1963 Is interesting to me that a bunch of Republicans could get that far up a higher education official's business and also completely ignore Jim Jordan's coaching career
@StillIRise1963
I despise the MSM media these days. This story about the college professors had more and longer coverage than the Ukraine invasion, Gaza, #DonTheCon's latest criminal lawsuit... anything that is actually important.
@StillIRise1963 I mean that the accusations brought on by a known bullcrapper against the scientific work don't hold water. They are bullcrap. First, if she were the plagiarizing her supervisor, they would have known first. Second, when there is a quote missing in the methods section, for three words describing the empirical study in the same three words the source was describing the empirical study, there could be the simple reason it was... an empirical study? 1/2
@StillIRise1963 Lastly, show me the standard requirements for scientific writing valid during the 90s, today's don't apply. We are looking at a very different world today. When the thesis was written, there was nearly no internet around, information was in -gasp- BOOKS and ARTICLES. 2/2
@StillIRise1963 I am commenting on Christopher Rufo "scientific" criticism against the (unfortunately now ex-) president of Harvard, Claudine Gay. Aren't you?
“Gay’s parents are immigrants from Haiti, and their experiences as students in New York City constitute the foundation of her upbringing. […] Along the way, the family lived in Saudi Arabia and New York, where Gay’s mother worked as a registered nurse and her father was hired by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.”
