Female university professors blame sexism for removal of women college presidents
Article here. Excerpt:
'Sexism motivated the resignations of University of Pennsylvania president Elizabeth Magill and Harvard president Claudine Gay, several professors argued Sunday.
The New York Times’ report "The Campus Wars Aren’t About Gender … Are They?" interviewed multiple female professors and university employees on the controversies surrounding Magill and Gay as well as Sally Kornbluth following their congressional testimonies in December. At the time, the women came under fire for avoiding the question of whether calling for the genocide of Jews violated their campus codes of conduct.
"It depends on the context," Gay responded.
Though many called for their resignations following their comments, some faculty members suggested their gender was also a factor.'
