And I think that's true at Harvard, too. I don't think you have a right to get awards, get prizes, or generally get federal funding if you're engaged in bigotry, anti-Semitism, violations of Title VI. Let's just... Take this back to the 1950s when I was a college student.

In the South, after Brown versus Board, some Southern schools were still allowing Klansmen to come on campus and harass Black students. They were teaching white supremacy. If in those days the federal government had cut off some funding to those universities, every liberal in the world would be applauding it. Or even go back 20 years earlier in the 1930s, Harvard, under President Conant,

was supporting Nazism. It was sending professors to celebrate Nazi universities that had excluded Jews. It was bringing in Nazi professors and Nazi students. If the federal government had said at that point, no visas for Nazis, even though Nazis have the right to congregate in Madison Square Garden, as they did in the late 1930s and early 1940s, we'd all be applauding that.

So you can't have a separate standard for Jews and for Zion.

A smaller minority now, when I started, I was teaching at Harvard, about 23% of the student body was Jewish. Now it's below 10%, which was the anti-Jewish quota that was imposed by President Lowell. The number of Jewish students now are lower than that. It's true of the number of white students in general. And we've seen a dramatic change. in the demographics of the university.

And that's part of the end of meritocracy. You know, we'll never get back to having universities first grade again unless we get back to meritocracy. Broadly defined, I'm not talking about grades or SAT scores. I'm talking about what the merits are. When you pick your surgeon, you want the best surgeon in the world. You don't care how far he's developed or what he's come from.

I think we should have the best students at Harvard meritocratically selected. And I think meritocracy always produces some diversity. Maybe not enough, but it produces diversity. We have to get back to meritocracy.

Forget about anti-Semitism for a minute. The Harvard Corporation picked as its president, Claudine Gay, a clear DEI choice, a clear affirmative action choice, utterly unqualified, probably unqualified to be a professor, ultimately charged with plagiarism.
