請齊聲為哈佛大學禱告

夏學理教授
前臺師大發言人/所長

對於本(12)月9日,賓州大學Liz Magill校長的決定辭職,操以「猶太主義」狙擊哈佛、賓大、麻省理工三大世界頂尖名校校長的美國眾議員Elise Stefanik,雖於第一時間忘形地嘶喊:「走了一個,還有兩個待處理」(One down. Two to go),但她那噬血掠食的政客嘴臉,也瞬間激起了將近600位哈佛教授,自發築起精神的捍衛長城,除聯名簽署力保Claudine Gay校長外,也疾呼「務須維護學術自由及大學獨立自主」。

對此,囂張的Stefanik不知曾否想過,她的身後,雖有超過70位國會議員,和她一起仗勢口誅筆伐、極盡羞辱三位校長,且恫嚇以發動國會調查權,「將在行政、教師以及領導統御和大學治理上,對於『忽視反猶太主義』的大學,進行強力和全面的調查」(https://stefanik.house.gov/2023/12/stefanik-statement-on-the-resignation-of-the-university-of-pennsylvania-president-liz-magill),但由於他們對「猶太主義」抱持的立場明顯偏頗,自也招致了巨大的迴力反彈。

在參與連署的近600位哈佛教授裡,包括有:法學院Laurence H. Tribe教授、前白宮經濟顧問委員會(Council of Economic Advisers)主席Jason Furman教授,以及普立茲獎得主Annette Gordon-Reed教授等馳名國際的學者。連署發起人歷史系教授Maya R. Jasanoff與Derek J. Penslar表示:「連署的訴求為:1.敦促哈佛大學最高管理機構,以最強烈的措辭,抵制『罷除Gay校長』的叫喚聲(urging Harvard‘s top governing body to resist calls to remove University President Claudine Gay from her post in the strongest possible terms);2.在面對出於政治動機的攻擊時,捍衛、固守大學的獨立自主原則(to defend the principle of university independence in the face of politically motivated attacks);3.抵制與「學術自由承諾」相悖的政治壓力(to resist political pressures that are at odds with Harvard’s commitment to academic freedom);4.不應由校友或政客做出大學領導層級的決定(decisions on University leadership should not be made by alumni or politicians)。

Jasanoff教授指出:「校園裡絕對有探索和澄清言論自由、學術自由的空間,但我不認為那些帶頭進行國會調查的人,是出於如此的善意」!Penslar教授則補充:「如果任由外部勢力決定大學形態,那麼,我們在多元化的校園裡,就無法捍衛『自由探索』的關鍵核心」。再者,歐巴馬總統的經濟顧問主席Jason Furman教授也執筆為Gay校長辯護,同時敦促學校不要屈服於外部壓力。

Furman教授在「X」平台上寫道:「由衷希望,我們不要讓捐贈者和政客來決定『誰該領導』我們的學校。Gay校長在聽證會前,就已譴責了種族滅絕,她在聽證會上也加以譴責,她在聽證會後又再次做出了譴責」。Furman教授指出:「作為一所學校,關於反猶太主義、伊斯蘭恐懼症、學術自由和言論自由、觀點多樣性…等,我們有工作要做,我們也需要在其中的許多方面加倍努力,但屈服於捐贈者和政客,最終將讓我們失去學術自由和言論自由」!(https://www.politico.com/news/2023/12/10/politicians-take-over-harvard-antisemitism-00130985

It’s really regarding building connections with these vendors who at some time will become purchasers. So, once you give your time and effort to aiding these vendors go it alone — the “Law involving Reciprocity” kicks in. Great blog post.

  13. Thanks for your text. I would also like to say that your health insurance agent also works well with the benefit of the actual coordinators of the group insurance cover. The health agent is given a list of benefits desired by a person or a group coordinator. Exactly what a broker will is hunt for individuals or coordinators that best go with those wants. Then he presents his advice and if both parties agree, the particular broker formulates a legal contract between the two parties.

I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She placed the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is completely off topic but I had to tell someone!

Persons from every discipline are using the credit card and people who not using the credit cards have lined up to apply for just one. Thanks for giving your ideas about credit cards.

  17. Thanks for your concepts. One thing I’ve noticed is always that banks plus financial institutions know the spending routines of consumers and understand that plenty of people max away their cards around the breaks. They properly take advantage of this kind of fact and then start flooding your current inbox as well as snail-mail box together with hundreds of no interest APR credit card offers shortly after the holiday season closes. Knowing that if you’re like 98 of the American general public, you’ll soar at the possible opportunity to consolidate financial debt and transfer balances for 0 APR credit cards.

Is there a way I can import all my wordpress content into it? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  20. Thanks for your write-up. Another issue is that being photographer includes not only problem in catching award-winning photographs but also hardships in establishing the best video camera suited to your requirements and most especially situations in maintaining the quality of your camera. This can be very accurate and visible for those photographers that are into capturing the nature’s eye-catching scenes — the mountains, the actual forests, the actual wild or maybe the seas. Going to these amazing places unquestionably requires a digital camera that can meet the wild’s nasty surroundings.

  21. These days of austerity along with relative stress and anxiety about taking on debt, most people balk resistant to the idea of having a credit card in order to make acquisition of merchandise or maybe pay for a vacation, preferring, instead just to rely on the actual tried and trusted means of making transaction – raw cash. However, in case you have the cash on hand to make the purchase completely, then, paradoxically, that is the best time just to be able to use the credit card for several good reasons.

  31. One thing is the fact that one of the most prevalent incentives for using your cards is a cash-back or rebate supply. Generally, you will get 1-5 back upon various buying. Depending on the credit card, you may get 1 returning on most buying, and 5 again on buying made using convenience stores, gas stations, grocery stores plus ‘member merchants’.

  36. One thing I would like to say is always that before purchasing more pc memory, check out the machine within which it will be installed. If the machine is running Windows XP, for instance, a memory threshold is 3.25GB. Setting up greater than this would easily constitute a new waste. Make sure that one’s mother board can handle your upgrade volume, as well. Good blog post.

  40. Thanks for the concepts you talk about through this blog. In addition, lots of young women exactly who become pregnant usually do not even try to get health insurance because they dread they couldn’t qualify.

  54. Thanks for the ideas you have shared here. In addition, I believe there are numerous factors which keep your car insurance policy premium down. One is, to consider buying automobiles that are inside the good set of car insurance businesses. Cars that are expensive are more at risk of being snatched. Aside from that insurance is also in line with the value of your car or truck, so the more expensive it is, then higher the particular premium you spend.

  55. I also believe that mesothelioma is a uncommon form of cancer that is typically found in these previously familiar with asbestos. Cancerous tissues form inside the mesothelium, which is a safety lining which covers almost all of the body’s body organs. These cells usually form inside lining of the lungs, stomach, or the sac that encircles the heart. Thanks for sharing your ideas.

  57. One other issue is that if you are in a circumstance where you do not possess a cosigner then you may really need to try to exhaust all of your federal funding options.

  58. I have seen that sensible real estate agents just about everywhere are starting to warm up to FSBO ***********.
