“The statement from the student groups is morally depraved. The statement from Harvard's leadership is moral cowardice,” Rep. Jake Auchincloss told POLITICO.
“The statement from the student groups is morally depraved. The statement from Harvard’s leadership is moral cowardice,” Rep. Jake Auchincloss told POLITICO.
“The statement from the student groups is morally depraved. The statement from Harvard’s leadership is moral cowardice. And I was appalled by both,” Auchincloss told POLITICO in an interview. Harvard’s leadership said in a statement Monday that they “have no illusion that Harvard alone can readily bridge the widely different views of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, but we are hopeful that, as a community devoted to learning, we can take steps that will draw on our common humanity and shared values in order to modulate rather than amplify the deep-seated divisions and animosities so distressingly evident in the wider world.
Auchincloss, who graduated from Harvard in 2010, said he exchanged messages with the provost of the university on Monday and that he still wants to talk to Gay about the university’s response to the students’ statement.
