Embattled Harvard University President Dr. Claudine Gay is now being accused of plagiarism.
A political scientist claims she did not get credit in the Ph.D. thesis that helped Gay land the top spot in the Ivy League.
This comes just after the university board reaffirmed its support of Gay, who was being pressured to resign over Capitol Hill testimony where she didn’t outright condemn antisemitism on campus.
Dr. Carol Swain, a political scientist and legal scholar, told NewsNation’s Leland Vittert Tuesday night that Harvard was trying to protect Gay.
