Colleges are now realizing their DEI presidents are all about to be removed if like Claudine Gay they have been plagiarizing their whole careers.
Higher education experts fear the public battle over Claudine Gay and her resignation as Harvard University President could deter candidates from seeking top posts at colleges and universities, which already lack racial and gender diversity.
Adam Falk, president of the Alfred Sloan Foundation and former president of Williams College told GBH News people will think twice before running the risk of getting publicly savaged by critics and forced to address profoundly divisive and politicized issues sweeping college campuses.
“College presidents are in an absolutely impossible position at the moment, trying to satisfy constituencies whether it's faculty or students or alumni or donors, each of whom think they have a primary call on the institution and want incompatible things,” Falk said.
In an op-ed titled “What Just Happened at Harvard Is Bigger Than Me” — her first comments since her resignation on Tuesday — Gay issued a warning too. She wrote that the campaign against her “was merely a single skirmish in a broader war to unravel public faith in pillars of American society.”
“Trusted institutions of all types — from public health agencies to news organizations — will continue to fall victim to coordinated attempts to undermine their legitimacy and ruin their leaders’ credibility,” she wrote.
Vacancies among college leaders were already expected to rise, according to a 2023 report by the American Council on Education, which found more than half of college presidents said they plan to step down within the next five years. Yale University is also searching for a new president.
Gay’s resignation, a national spectacle, could exacerbate the problem. It also raises concerns about the widening racial gap between increasingly diverse students who attend US colleges and the predominantly white men who run them.
Some in higher education see Gay's departure as just the beginning, as politically conservative groups grow emboldened to attack “woke” campuses and their diversity, equity and inclusion efforts.
