DONORS AND ALUMNI DEMAND THAT PENN’S PRESIDENT RESIGN OVER REMARKS AT HEARING

head of the University of Pennsylvania, appeared to evade questions about
whether calling for the genocide of Jews violated Penn’s code of conduct.

Alumni, students and donors of the University of Pennsylvania called on
Wednesday for Elizabeth Magill to resign as president of the school, a day after
she testified at a contentious congressional hearing about campus antisemitism
and evaded questions about whether students calling for the genocide of Jews
violated Penn’s code of conduct.

The people raising questions about her leadership included Gov. Josh Shapiro of
Pennsylvania, who said he found her statements “unacceptable.”

“It should not be hard to condemn genocide, genocide against Jews, genocide
against anyone else,” Governor Shapiro said Wednesday in a meeting with
reporters. “I’ve said many times, leaders have a responsibility to speak and act
with moral clarity, and Liz Magill failed to meet that simple test.”
