Harvard President Claudine Gay Accused of Plagiarism and Alleged Cover-Up

Harvard University covered up a secret plagiarism investigation into its president, Claudine Gay, and used an expensive law firm to threaten The Post when asked about the allegations. The investigation was only disclosed after Gay's disastrous testimony on antisemitism in front of Congress. Harvard claims to have cleared Gay of breaching research misconduct standards but acknowledges that she needs to make four corrections in two publications. The university has not revealed which works Gay is seeking to have corrected or whether her dissertation will be corrected. Academics whose work was allegedly plagiarized have differing opinions on whether it constitutes plagiarism.
