CRIMSON ON CRIMSON: Harvard Prof: On Second Thought, Our Extension School Doesn’t Suck. “Yeah, bull****. Hochschild let everyone know exactly what she thinks of HES students in her sneering and ad hominem rejoinder to Christopher Rufo’s legitimate criticisms of Harvard and Claudine Gay. The school’s HES Association certainly heard that message too despite Hochshild’s backtracking in the wake of criticism over her comment, and demanded a more formal and complete apology on Monday.”

UPDATE: From the comments: “What’s great is that what’s going on in the Gay humiliation, the Hochschild backtrack, and the Ackman/BI feud is going to result in the same outcome: the meltdown of prestige credentials, as the gas is let out of the soufflé and it’s all just a runny, messy puddle.”

Plus: “Harvard could have moved on from this weeks ago, but it’s Harvard people prolonging this, giving it more hang time, aggravating the embarrassment and damage. It’s a damn shame.”
