"Prominent Investor Calls for MIT President's Termination Amid Controversy"
Billionaire hedge fund manager Bill Ackman is demanding that the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) fire its president, Sally Kornbluth, over her handling of antisemitism on campus. Ackman, a vocal critic of Ivy League presidents who he believes have not done enough to combat campus antisemitism, made the demand on social media, pledging not to write a letter if Kornbluth is promptly terminated. Ackman's wife, Neri Oxman, a former professor at MIT, has also posted pro-Israel messages on her social media account. Ackman has also called for Harvard's president, Claudine Gay, to be fired.
