UPenn pushed out Liz Magill not long after her awful Congressional hearing about why the university didn’t do anything to combat antisemitism poisoning the campus and her non-apology apology video.
Harvard did the stupid thing, holding onto Claudine Gay for weeks, even though everyone had to know something would happen. Or maybe they didn’t because the elite think they’re untouchable. Gay resigned.
MIT President Sally Kornbluth has been in the shadows. I guess those elites thought it would blow over if Harvard and Gay held their ground.
The day after Gay resigned, Kornbluth told MIT new plans to improve everything for everyone!
Korbluth disguised this plan as an observation of MIT during her first year as president.
The timing cannot be a coincidence.
Kornbluth admitted something she didn’t appreciate a value that everyone in a leadership role should appreciate: “the matter-of-fact problem-solving ethos, the willingness to name a problem, measure it, design a solution and keep iterating until it’s right.”
Excuse me? Did you…did you admit you were not fully qualified to take the job?
Kornbluth doesn’t appreciate the value because she doubles down on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI).
DEI is exactly what got these colleges in trouble in the first place!
She sounds like the socialists who claim socialism will work this time because no one has ever tried True Socialism!
This time, MIT will try True DEI, and it will work:
3. Making sure our DEI programs effectively meet campus needsWe will soon announce a new Vice President for Equity and Inclusion (VPEI). With this new role, we have an important opportunity to reflect on and comprehensively assess the structures and programs intended to support our community and create a welcoming environment.While we address the pressing challenge of how to best to combat antisemitism, Islamophobia and hatred based on national origin or ethnicity in our community, we need to talk candidly about practical ways to make our community a place where we all feel that we belong.Vice Provost for faculty Paula Hammond will work with the incoming VPEI to think broadly about the best approaches for advancing community, civility and mutual respect on our campus, in the spirit of our MIT Values.
They always have to include Islamophobia even though all the hatred has been pointed at Jews.
The first step is “student disciplinary processes.” No specifics, but I bet it has everything to do with Gay’s plagiarism scandal.
Nothing can save Kornbluth. Bill Ackman has been leading the charge against presidents of colleges who won’t do anything about protecting Jewish students.
