Harvard students pen piece calling on President Gay to resign, stating she has ‘failed’ in the role

Harvard students penned an editorial in the university's student newspaper calling on embattled President Claudine Gay to resign from her position following weeks of allegations regarding antisemitism and plagiarism. 

"University President Claudine Gay should resign," the piece titled, "Dissent: For Harvard’s Sake, It’s Time to Let Gay Go," began. "Harvard’s presidency is no mere empty honor; it is a deeply challenging managerial job with deeply challenging duties, not least of which is navigating national outcry," the piece continued. 

"In each of these respects, Gay has failed," the students stated in their Harvard Crimson editorial. "The Harvard Corporation must find a leader who can do better."
