Sen. Marsha Blackburn commented on Harvard President Claudine Gay’s resignation, stating that it was long overdue and appropriate.
Blackburn credited the House committee for conducting the hearing that led to Gay’s resignation and emphasized that there is no place for antisemitism on college campuses.
Gay’s resignation, amid widespread plagiarism allegations, will end the shortest Harvard presidency in the university’s history, and Harvard Provost Dr. Alan Garber will become interim president. (Trending: Trump Announces Heartbreaking Melania-Related Health Update)
“It is appropriate that she stepped down from her post,” said Sen. Blackburn.
“She should have done it sooner,” she continued.
“I give the House committee a lot of credit for the way they conducted that hearing and the results that it has brought forward,” added the senator.
“There is no place for antisemitism on our nation’s college campuses or in this country,” said Blackburn.
The congressional hearing was in response to rising antisemitism at American universities, and Gay faced accusations of plagiarism in scholarly works.
