President Gay has become a major liability for Harvard University:
**🎥Shocking Video of President Gay’s Testimony to Congress on Tuesday, December 5’th below.**
1) If her inflammatory and Antisemitic statements continue Harvard will likely be charged under the Civil Rights Act of 1964 Title VI clarified to explicitly include Antisemitism by the Biden Administration on September 26, 2023.
2) Harvard and other endowments may lose special tax exempt status. Treasury may argue that by taking a specific political position against Jewish Americans, a position that would not be taken against other ethnic groups, Harvard is politicizing itself and thus subject to ordinary tax treatment. This would be disastrous to Harvard University and Harvard Corporation and this could involuntarily drag along other endowments into a taxable status.
3) Donors, both Jewish and the 90% of alumni who do not share Antisemitic views will vote with their feet and as much as a predicted 60-90% of future donations may be lost from the alumni base. Non-Jewish alumni will be reluctant to step into the political crossfires by supporting an institution that explicitly condones and protects genocidal statements (shockingly in President Gay's own words). The vast majority (97% of donations) are made on a non-anonymous basis in order to build legacy at Harvard and with 1000's of causes competing with Harvard - donors will be reluctant to donate and be labeled bigoted and complicit in genocidal rhetoric through a historic lens.
The Harvard Corporation has a Fiduciary duty to both the University and its alumni base to:
1) Remove President Gay effective immediately.
2) Take immediate action and expel students who are threatening and intimidating Jewish students with genocidial statements (no more teethless PR statements).
3) Outline specific policies that puts Harvard back into compliance to the Civil Rights Act of 1964 Title VI and takes away the risk of litigation, loss of federal funding, and loss of tax exempt status.
Action must be taken TODAY in order to turn around the disastrous mismanagement of Harvard University, Harvard Corporation, and the Harvard Brand by President Gay an institution President Gay inherited with a nearly 400 year track record and brand.
Harvard alumni can no longer sit on the sidelines and hope that President Gay “pivots from Antisemitism”.
We are asked at convocation to show class unity and to stand with our classmates. Today, Jewish Students and Alumni ask that ALL Harvad Alumni, Jewish, Arab, and Gentile, Straight or LGBTQ+, Black, Brown, White, Hispanic, stand with US and reject Genocide and its defenders.
We implore Harvard Corporation to build the moral courage and to defend their Fiduciary duty.
-A Concerned Alumni
