You have yet to answer either of my questions, yours is a nothingburger asked by someone who can't answer a simple question because it goes against everything they have been saying up to this point.

Get bent, or answer the simple question that we all know you can

Off topic again and making this thread all about me.

I already know the answer, DEI is not LAW.

But not hard for someone with half a brain to figure it out

Funny but I would have thought plagiarism would make you entirely persona non grata in academia, seems not to be the case now.

Of course it is, if one if found guilty, so far citing mistakes aren't considered grounds for firing someone.

ah so its definitely not plagiarism then?
I ask, bercause there was all the hoo ha about this a while back and the lefty muppets chose to see it as racism rather than plagiarism.

The excuses sounmded rather like the ones a Tory MP comes up with when he's been outed as chasing his secretary or hanging out in the men's loos.

All of this has nothing to do with the real world outside of Harvard, Harvard does things Harvard's way .

They are still subject to the law oif the land though....you try hiring an exclusively white, male team for a department and see how long that attempt lasts before the law is stomping all over it.

Who hires an all white team these days? Why?

No one because those in charge of the country would not let them.

I think they call that employment discrimination.

Nobody forced them to plagiarize anything...they did that all on their own.

It is suspected the anonymous people putting forth the claims are conservatives using this as a weapon against DEI faculty.

saying you are thick would be like saying it gets just a little chilly in northern Alaska in February.

The person we are discussing is accused of plagiarism, she was accused and it was reported by a news organization. An ATS poster then used that news article to make a thread and offered an opinion on the situation. So far, that's what I know to be true. If any of that is not true, bring a link or sit quietly pulling lint from your navel.

The part everyone here (except you) seems to fixate on is the part where she used someone else's work in her own papers and didn't attribute their work to them. If you use the google, and search for the definition of plagiarism, you would find that definition is what she is accused of.

Perhaps she is innocent, and perhaps even the person making the claims is racists and loves to play with his Donald J. Trump trading cards. But based on what we know right now, the facts point to this being a problem. Perhaps an investigation will clear her of any wrongdoing. But if the end result is she goes back and adds citations to her work, then we will have to have another discussion on why anyone would ever even use the word plagiarism, as it's pointless.

If you wish to call everyone who disagrees with you a racist, that's your right, but any reputation you might have here will be forever tainted with that slant. And someone might even make it their signature. If they enjoyed pulling your sting and watching your squawk that is.

It's the correct answer so I will

If it isn't racist why do keep mentioning she's black. God knows what you would have posted if she was Muslim.

wow, I really need clarification on this pretty fast. So it's racist to mention someone's skin color? I'm totally fine with whatever the rules are, but remember, white is also a skin color, and if it's racist to notice, then it's racist to notice (for everyone). Please clarify ASAP so none of us hurt anyone unintentionally. thanks in advance.

I never called anyone a racist, that's misreprentation but my reputation doesn't hinge on you and you know who else. So it's all good. Continue your back and forth flip flopping on first she is guilty and now she may not be guilty squawking as it entertains many here.

The Boston Celtics? Wait, no, that's not right. Professional sports is the only place a meritocracy still exists. BTW, why aren't there fat little white guys on the basketball team? Racism? Oh snap, I said white. I hope I get clarification on that soon.

Even if you did get clarification it still would not be clear to you because you ignore context.

You called everyone racist and sexist.
By saying people hate diversity, that's exactly what you were saying.

You kind of need to go back and read what you wrote. I sensed your intent was to call me a racist. And intent is everything.

I didn't flip flop, I stated a fact. In fact, I stated the same fact you did earlier. That the investigation hasn't happened yet, and they may find her innocent. If that's wrong, just bring a coherent argument as to why. You aren't batting 1000 in that department thus far, but who knows, you might surprise us. And you are totally 100% correct in that my opinion of you means nothing. That comes from everyone who opens this thread and reads your pages and pages of strange words. I think you are super.

Is diversity strictly having to do with racism and sexism in your mind? Not in my mind, so stop telling me what the meaning of my words are, I will tell you. Define diversity for me, so we all can see what you think it means.

All I said was you all seem to hate diversity - that was it, nothing else. The rest of you filled in your own blanks. FF thinks it has only to do with racism and sexism. Well I don't.

And you do flip flop as it suits your misrepresenting people on this site.

Since I started the thread, I will tell you exactly why it was started, since you don't seem to know and are PROJECTING crap onto me that isn't true.

- This article is in the news.

- It is of interest to people.

- Harvard is an elite well known school so everyone is familiar with it.

- It shows yet another Harvard elite caught in plagiarism.

- It calls into question the hiring practices and standards and investigative abilities of Harvard.

- It calls into question why they are charging so much for an education there when their faculty have massive problems.

- It will be interesting to see if they try to cover this up as well.

- It will be interesting to see if she tries to squirm out of being caught by falsely claiming racism or sexism as the other person tried to do.

- Harvard expels students for plagiarism so if they don't do the same with this person, it's hypocrisy. It will be interesting to see what they do with this.
