University of Penn President will be asked to resign...

Lot's of backlash since the Congressional testimoney. One has to wonder if the MIT and Harvard Presidents are going to be next...



The University of Pennsylvania is expected to ask its president, Liz Magill, to resign Friday over growing outrage at her failure to condemn calls for the genocide of the Jewish people — a move celebrated by billionaire hedge fund manager Bill Ackman, who said she would be “one down.”


UPenn is facing increasing pressure to change its leadership, from major donors to those on its own staff — and even from the governor of Pennsylvania, Josh Shapiro. The governor, who is Jewish, called Magill’s testimony “shameful” and urged the board of trustees to meet to decide whether her statements were in line with the school’s values.


Well there you go... we have the question. Is it part of the schools values to allow for calls of Jewish genocide? When your President(s) suggests as much, I think you have to evaluate more than just the President. This might be "one down" and "two to go" in terms of MIT and Harvard having to make the same choice, but cutting off the head of the snake in this case probably doesn't solve the underlying problem.


What it "might" do is push the liberal haters to simply do a better job of disguising their hate. Obviously they learned that there are times when their liberal woke hatred is not going to be tolerated by the widespread public. But I doubt it stops them from hating. I doubt it stops them from pushing their limits to the edge.


Yes, if all three President get canned (and I suspect that might end up eventually being the case) then it would be a step in the right direction. Perhaps the journey of reestablishing educational "norms" that are educational rather than woke politics starts with these sorts of steps. However, what will be equally important here is who replaces the fired President(s).

Spot on:


But as much as I enjoy seeing these people stew in the juices of their hypocrisy – and believe me, enjoy it I do -- it is nonetheless true, as Eugene Volokh cogently points out, that free speech principles, and the First Amendment where it applies, prevent things like a selective ban on anti-semitism, or on “advocacy of genocide” or whatever.


But think how much easier the life of these administrators would be if they and their institutions had just had some principles. If they had a record of allowing student and faculty speech on everything without punishment, they could point to that record and say, sure, some of our students are saying monstrous things, but we believ…

“I got caught up in what had become at that point, an extended, combative exchange about policies and procedures,” Gay said in the interview. “What I should have had the presence of mind to do in that moment was return to my guiding truth, which is that calls for violence against our Jewish community — threats to our Jewish students — have no place at Harvard, and will never go unchallenged.”
“Substantively, I failed to convey what is my truth,” Gay added.

Well, there's your fucking problem, dipshit.


There is only ONE truth. We all don't get to have our own. As long as your head is lodged THAT far up your own ass, you have no business anywhere…
