Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | AP: Republicans Have Found a "New Weapon" -- Enforcement of a University's Honor Code Against Serial Plagiarism -- to Wield Against Innocent DEI Hires"New weapon." It's a weapon, guys. Ethical rules and rules of academic honesty are just "weapons." Via Twitchy:
Emily ZanottiWe'll see if that rule survives the DEI Year Zero Razing of All and Every Standard. The next argument will be, of course, that it's just racist to expect blacks to follow the White Man's Rules of Attribution and Academic Credit. That's white supremacy straight-up! The black racists are out in force. Fire-alarm puller and liar Jamaal Bowman: It's racist to enforce the academic honor code against a university president. If she's black. (Of course.) Rep. Jamaal Bowman Ed.D. Olivia RondeauNicole Hannah-Jones, who infamously dabbled in her own academic fraud in publishing the discredited, conspiratorial "1619 Project" -- which twisted history in order to make the specious agitprop claim that the United States rebelled against England only to ensure that it could continue enslaving blacks -- also thinks another Fake Black Academic should be excused for academic fraud. Well, they got what they wanted from their well-executed plan. https://t.co/SsdhSYYnEk -- Ida Bae Wells (@nhannahjones) January 2, 2024More dark conspiracy theories from the dark conspiracy theorist. Oddly enough! The Plan: Fusilli SpockThe academic fraud, grifter, and fake DEI "academic" Henry Rogers, who styles himself "Ibram X. Khendi" (all con artists have an alias), also agrees that enforcing the rules against his fellow DEI fakes is A Racism. ![]()
Jeremy Wayne Tate There are two things going on here. Obviously, the black racists are just, as usual, demanding that blacks cannot be held to the standards of The White Man's Racist Rules of Academic Honesty. The other thing is: None of these people are academics. They are political firebrands who burrowed into a formerly academic institution and corrupted it into becoming merely a leftwing propaganda mill. What Hannah-Jones and Jamaal Bowman and Claudine Gay are really saying is, "We changed your institutions and they have New Rules. And it's fine to counterfeit history or steal language to advance your DEI-based career. Because none of this White Man's Academic Research matters anyway. All that matters is The Message and The Struggle, and we are delivering that, the only thing that matters in today's universities." I just wish they wouldn't be so coy about saying it. Just come out and say, "We are not academics, we are Marxist Racist Polemicists, and the rules are different for mere propagandists than for academics who are supposedly searching for truth." But they won't admit that, of course. Because the whole point of burrowing into formerly respectable and formerly academic institutions is to wear those skin-suits so that Marxist racist propaganda is costumed in the black robes of academia.

The only “Weapons” Conservatives deployed was iron clad evidence of the massive academic incompetency of President Gay.
If Harvard President Gay had been a competent academic scholar, she would have survived her stupid and reprehensible antisemitic comments to Congress. In fact, she already had survived as her fellow Democrats covered for her and one of her fellow University Presidents. No one was holding a $100 million threat over her head. All Conservatives need to defeat modern Liberalism is for the Liberal Mainstream Media to honestly expose the stupidity of liberals and the hypocrisy of their actions, which the mainstream media will never admit.

Sounds like DU are racist misogynist, based on their comments.
Will this be the end of trying to bring diversity to the Presidency of Harvard? SOME may use this as an excuse. How about no praising Hamas as president of the University?[i[ Had she not, she’d still be there. The fact that she was ever tapped to be President of Harvard is shocking. She does not have the academic record to be promoted to full professor in a lot of US institutions. The plagiarism is egregious. I mean, who plagiarizes the acknowledgments in their dissertation? So did Stefanik get to have her 2nd dog and pony show? Sounds more like she got a second scalp from her bs hearing. I’m disappointed that woman resigned. She was a fraud that brought shame to a great university. And failed to take responsibility for her actions. Definitely not leadership material, especially of one of our finest institutions. I would love to be a student in her class and ask her if I should abide by the Harvard policies on plagiarism or simply follow her example.

Insty linked to a (very long) X post by him where he discovered DEI and what it actually means. He's not a fan.

the whole academic process skews everything hard to the left. in some of the first classes a student takes, they introduce the concept of confirmation bias and say that you need to go where the evidence leads you. However, they make sure that path is one way, and that way is to the left. They also insist that only academic sources are legit sources of data to use. This is all just leftist material which, as we have seen from the climate change bs, it's all doctored. Facts are on our side, but they have created a process in the higher education system to ignore actual facts and data and call their bs legit.

Skin. Suit.
Honestly, Gay's plagiarism didn't harm "the conversation" all that much. She added some bullshit to a bullshit branch of study. I'm feeling all sorts of schadenfreude over it, don't get me wrong. I suppose the best part is how she lost her bully pulpit. I still find it amazing Harvard kept her as a Professor. Her plagiarism makes her unfit to be President, but not unfit to be a Professor? The "academics" that are really crapping in the punch bowl are the ones in real branches of study that are P hacking, faking data, or tossing out data that doesn't fit their preferred outcome. Those people are actively holding back progress and will get people killed as more and more research gets built on top of false results, and escapes into the wild.

Read "Autobiography of Malcolm X" (actually written by Alex Haley, who made up the whole Kunta Kinte thing for "Roots") about how he left the Nation of Islam when he went on Hajj and discovered that actual Islam was noting like what Elijah Muhammad was preaching, which was largely just made up by Wallace D.

Of course. Gay's entire career has been to be a political officer, a zampolit, who takes special pleasure in trying to wreck the careers of black academics who aren't as woke as she is. They knew what they were getting. When she was given tenure at Stanford, there was apparently a lot of eye-rolling among the faculty, given her miserable publication record, but the faculty had learned that you don't publicly criticize obviously political appointments.

Another thing that I think is going on is that plagiarism is so rampant at these supposedly "elite" universities that everyone just wants to sweep it under the rug. Gay is just the tip of the iceberg.
I think most of these "academics" -- and 100% of those in the softbrain disciplines like DEI -- are lazy, dimwitted mediocrities who never had an original thought or idea, and never actually produced anything of scholarship or value whatsoever. They basically just cut-and-pasted the same woke anal spooge that everyone else did. It's shit scholarship and rampant plagiarism all the way down.

The scalping comments are interesting...I thought I had read it was introduced, possibly by the French, as a means to confirm bounties paid to natives for killing enemy tribes.
Per a quick wiki search, however, that doesn't appear to be the case: There is substantial archaeological evidence of scalping in North America in the pre-Columbian era. Carbon dating of skulls show evidence of scalping as early as 600 AD...Among Plains Indians, it seems to have been practiced primarily as part of intertribal warfare, with scalps only taken of enemies killed in battle. However, author and historian Mark van de Logt wrote, "Although military historians tend to reserve the concept of 'total war'", in which civilians are targeted, "for conflicts between modern industrial nations," the term "closely approaches the state of affairs between the Pawnees, the Sioux, and the Cheyennes. Noncombatants were legitimate targets. Indeed, the taking of a scalp of a woman or child was considered honorable because it signified that the scalp taker had dared to enter the very heart of the enemy's territory."

The best part of her getting taken down by this is that outside of STEM fields, almost everything written has been either plagiarized or total meaningless bullshit. The funniest part of what Gay did is that she plagiarized useless academic argle-bargle because she was too lazy to scribble out a new version herself.

Depends on the subject. STEM types tend to be very defensive about their work, and someone copying them would likely be quickly revealed and expelled. Posted by: Archimedes at January 03, 2024 01:33 PM (CsUN+) No, its actually easy. Back in the early 90s there was a case where a paper came for peer review to a competitor and he showed it to his PhD student. He then rejected the paper and the student copied her work and published it as his. The woman whose work brought it up for years and when finally it was challenged the Student couldn't show any raw data and the whole thing blew up. The woman had left the field long before and much of it was hushed up. There was another case where a minor professor published 50+ papers by copying one from a major journal and submitting it to a minor journal with little or no change. Again it took almost random chance for the hoax to be discovered. Posted by: Oldcat at January 03, 2024 01:44 PM (eoQWY) 188

My plagiarism story.
I took an English II writing course in college. It was under a first year professor. It started off okay but the professor apparently didn't appreciate my lack of attentiveness and focus on the girl next to me. After receiving 90+ grades on my first few papers , I unexpectedly started to receive a lot lower going forward. On the next paper which was a non-fiction technical assignment, I decided to plagiarize the entire paper just as a test. ( yes stupid) . I found a book on the subject in the library, copied complimentary sections and turned it in. I got the same low grade as previous. I was personally satisfied that it wasn't my writing and just took my lumps until the semester was over. Posted by: Titanium White at January 03, 2024 01:47 PM (lCVt6) 203

He also notes: The same pattern holds across America’s elite institutions: a slow-moving downward trend from the 1990s to the mid-2010s—likely due to all sorts of normal sociological factors—and then a purge so sweeping and dramatic you almost wonder who sent out the secret memo.

According to the principles of progressivism, this just means the pentagon will double down on the extremist claims:
After reports that some service members participated in the Jan. 6 riot, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin ordered an independent study to get “greater fidelity” on extremism in the ranks. The think tank tasked with the report, the Institute for Defense Analyses (IDA), “found no evidence that the number of violent extremists in the military is disproportionate” to U.S. society. A review of Pentagon data suggested “fewer than 100 substantiated cases per year of extremist activity by members of the military in recent years,” the report says.

Posted by: TexasDan ---------- Harvard is avoiding a lawsuit for wrongful termination by paying her off. It is common in the academic world to get rid of administrators who are foolish, controversial, or incompetent by returning them to their department where they have been granted tenure generally with slight or no pay cut. But, the relationship is a chilly one in that department as the former leader is usually resented by the others (covertly if not overtly). My guess is that Gay goes into the world of NGOs, politics, or something like that in the long run. I doubt she wants to go to academic conferences to be made fun off or submit her work to journals.

They've been seizing and pouncing on their enemies' constituent blocs as well as the traditional values groups. All are anathema.

You should take a look the case of John Fogerty being sued by CCR rights holder Saul Zaentz for ripping off a CCR song that John wrote (Run through the Jungle) in his later Old Man Down the Road. Things are rarely cut and dried in law because you cited a direct one for one copy but many derivative works from materials have been copyrighted and successfully defended. Fogerty won his case despite. In another, George Harrison lost his case for copyright infringement of My Sweet Lord and the Chiffon's He's So Fine.

Harvard might be a little different, being a $50 billion hedge fund and all, but it still strikes me that academics are one of the least important aspects of the job, as Ackman points out.

"Good luck Penny. Barky's pleas were ignored for Gay."
So you seriously think Obama didn't have anything to do with her decision to resign? That's cute. Posted by: Haley's Buttery Biscuit at January 03, 2024 02:38 PM (T9Rl0) Yup, Barky gets the benefits of clemency and resisting the right wing, Harvard takes any blame for removing her.

Why would anyone assume that a political science professor with no executive experience would have any idea how to run a college?

Well sometimes, to be fair, the group kept playing after the first Top Hits album so there might be group content. My favorite was the greatest hits album after, like 2 albums.

If he's lucky he's driving truck and making good money, saving up to get married. Yeah, I'm a dreamer... Posted by: Ray Van Dune at January 03, 2024 03:37 PM (8Ta2Y) 498
