As most Americans are now aware, Harvard President Claudine Gay finally stepped down due to the multiple issues she brought on herself. She will continue as a professor with her roughly $900,000 per year salary, and continue on the faculty. Despite the soft landing, Gay has already begun lashing out at an alleged vast conservative conspiracy.
In an Op-Ed published in the New York times entitled, “What Happened to Me is Bigger Than Harvard,” Gay warns of conservative forces seeking to bring down the elite status of Ivy League universities and other such elite institutions. The clear underlying message is that Gay was targeted for her race and sex and commitment to progressive ideals like DEI and that we should not let that happen again. This editorial was a shot across the bow telling plebeian conservatives to shut up.

That is particularly the case with the attacks again journalist and Harvard graduate Christopher Rufo, who covered the Gay plagiarism scandal before Gay’s disastrous hearings at the Capitol. Harvard faculty lashing out against Rufo has come full circle in lashing out against what some professors consider Harvard’s “un-elite” program.
