Pressure is intensifying on Harvard University's governing body following Harvard University President Claudine Gay's testimony before Congress and the subsequent plagiarism scandal. The New York Times reveals that two members of the Harvard Corporation, the school's governing board, faced a tough grilling from current and former faculty members in a recent meeting.
According to the report, Tracy Palangian and Paul Finnegan, members of the Harvard Corporation, met privately with faculty members at a Cambridge restaurant. During the meeting, they were urged to take more decisive action to address the controversies enveloping Harvard. Former Harvard Medical School Dean, Jeff Flier, was quoted as saying, 'You need to be more out front of this. If people are saying the university is making mistakes, they are talking about you.'
