Harvard University’s governing board has decided to keep Dr. Claudine Gay as president.

“In this tumultuous and difficult time, we unanimously stand in support of President Gay. At Harvard, we champion open discourse and academic freedom, and we are united in our strong belief that calls for violence against our students and disruptions of the classroom experience will not be tolerated,” the Fellows of Harvard College wrote in a statement.

Only months into her leadership, Gay came under intense scrutiny following the congressional hearing in which she and two of her peers were criticized for their answers to questions about campus antisemitism.
