Summary
Claudine Gay announced her resignation as Harvard’s president yesterday after a new round of accusations surfaced over plagiarism in her scholarly work. She has been facing mounting criticism over how she responded to antisemitism on campus as well.
The story shows that even the president of America’s oldest and most highly endowed institution of higher education is not immune to criticism from the constituents she serves. Theirs is a transactional and symbiotic relationship.
Rare is the relationship based on unconditional, holistic, and unrequited sacrifice by one for the other. But this is exactly how our Father loves us. Now he is calling us to embrace his love in ways that transform our souls and our society.
