“This person has risen to the leadership of a major university, but I don’t believe that the moral guidance is there or the intellectual integrity that you would expect. And I’m not calling for her to resign or to be fired, but I’m calling on the board of trustees of Harvard to look very seriously at these issues, and hold her to the same standard that they would hold a white male or a white female to.”

Carol Swain is a former tenured professor at Princeton and Vanderbilt University and the author of numerous books, including “The Adversity of Diversity; How the Supreme Court’s Decision to Remove Race from College Admissions Criteria Will Doom Diversity Programs.”

She recently became aware of plagiarism accusations against Harvard President Claudine Gay, who has come under fire for her testimony before Congress on campus antisemitism. One of the works allegedly plagiarized is from Dr. Swain’s award-winning 1993 book, “Black Faces, Black Interests: The Representation of African Americans in Congress.”
