From the resignation letter of Claudine Gay, the now-departing president of Harvard Corporation,* which, as far as we know, she wrote herself:
Amidst all of this, it has been distressing to have doubt cast on my commitments to confronting hate and to upholding scholarly rigor — two bedrock values that are fundamental to who I am — and frightening to be subjected to personal attacks and threats fueled by racial animus.
In her letter, Gay offers no expression of regret or remorse for any of her actions. There’s no admission of wrongdoing. There’s only the briefest and vaguest allusion to the nearly 50 cases of alleged plagiarism. She does, however, offer a direct characterization of her critics as “fueled by racial animus.”
