OT Penn President resigns

We are all aware we are human.

I can not otherwise assume things about everyone else here like you do.

Not sure what being Arab or Jewish has to do with it in this regard.

I have and love Palestinian and Israeli friends who are all suffering horrifically. Most of them, with enormous discipline and courage, abstain from hatred of “the other side”, understanding that the main target of Hamas and of Netanyahu’s core supporters is precisely the ability to abstain from mechanistic hatred, holding out for the vision of Psalm 133.

regardless of which branch of descent they hold from father Abraham.

Poisonouss hatred, intentionally funded and maliciously spread, has arrived even in the supposedly cold and calculating calculus of this board.

Peace be upon us all. But that is not a passive state, but something that requires forbearance and self awareness onto self criticism.

War once loosed destroys civility and morality.

ALL ARE PUNISHED!

I thought it was said better in a different scene…and someone here once said Michael York was hot.

The teacher had a temper tantrum. He deals with young teens he has experience. This war is not here.

His teaching career is over. He really should not have an Israeli flag in an American classroom.

He went way over the line. No retrieving his career.

Wall Street Journal has letter to the editor today. St. Louis University, a Catholic Jesuit university, decided to add a Kosher kitchen at the request of a practicing Jewish student. The student found the Catholic university and its students more accommodating of her religion than the zoos now found on Ivy League campuses.

In an analysis shared with The Crimson, Bik alleged that Shah, the vice chair of research in the department of neurosurgery at Brigham and Women’s Hospital, presented images from other scientists’ research as his own original experimental data…

Shah is the latest prominent scientist to have his research face scrutiny by Bik, who has emerged as a leading figure among scientists concerned with research integrity.

She contributed to data falsification allegations against four top scientists at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute — leading to the retraction of six and correction of 31 papers — and independently reviewed research misconduct allegations reported by the Stanford Daily against former Stanford president Marc T. Tessier-Lavigne, which played a part in his resignation last summer.

This is very interesting. Both my BILs make very limited claims.

My BIL in medicine with his research papers just presents a fact and then opens up a bunch of new questions. You could not accuse him of having a conclusion. Why would there be a conclusion? He finds a molecule and figures out where it is in the cell architecture. What it does is up for new debates.
