I see… I’ve read a little more about this. it seems to me now that she’s being put through rather a lot of scrutiny, perhaps more so even than many past Presidents of Harvard. They’re really putting her through the wringer.

Harvard President Claudine Gay resigned Tuesday amid mounting criticism of her scholarship and leadership on the campus.
“It is with a heavy heart but a deep love for Harvard that I write to share that I will be stepping down as president,” Gay wrote in a letter.

Gay faced complaints about how she initially handled those tensions, and her remarks during a December congressional hearing about antisemitism on college campuses aroused intense criticism.

The board announced that Gay would request corrections to some work to include missing citations or quotations, but it said that she did not conduct research misconduct.
