My Take
I hold Claudine Gay in genuine intellectual regard, separate from the headlines. Before the noise, she was a serious political scientist studying voter turnout and the politics of race and identity, work that demands both rigor and nerve. Reaching the presidency of Harvard, after a Stanford foundation and election to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, is no small climb. Her tenure was brief and intensely scrutinized, but I prefer to remember the sharpness of her research questions. Public spectacle fades; the quality of someone's scholarship is what I think deserves the longer, fairer hearing.
