Embattled Harvard University president to remain at her post

Harvard University's president will retain her job after criticism for hesitating to state whether advocating for the genocide of Jews violated Harvard's code of conduct. The institution's governing body reaffirmed support for her leadership but expressed dissatisfaction with the university's initial response to Hamas's October 7 attacks. Israel reported casualties and hostages during the attacks, leading to widespread destruction in Gaza. The university's response should have been an immediate condemnation, according to the governing board.
