In this episode of "The No-Longer-Hallowed Halls of Academia"...
Let's just cut to chase — and then backhoe and fill:
A month after a Harvard University dean vowed to support conservative students in the wake of the assassination of Turning Point USA co-founder and CEO Charlie Kirk, the Ivy League university is now refusing to say if it will impose sanctions on a different dean who has staunchly defended "rioting and looting" as legitimate "parts of democracy," described "whiteness" as a "self-destructive ideology," and said — crudely, by the way —he was just fine with people wishing death on President Donald Trump.
The Trump-loathing dean, Gregory Davis, is the resident dean of Harvard’s Dunster House, where he serves as "the main liaison for students needing extra help achieving their academic and wellness goals," reported the Washington Free Beacon on Thursday.
Conservative students at Harvard have, over the last two weeks, revealed a series of troubling social media posts they say disqualify Davis for his position.
Yet Harvard remains crickets. Shocked? Me, neither.
Here's one of Davis' "greatest hits," which he tweeted in October 2020:
I don’t - at all - blame people wishing Trump ill. [F]**k that guy and [i]f he dies, he dies.
More, via WFB:
A few months earlier, as riots consumed Minneapolis following the death of George Floyd, Davis tweeted: "rioting and looting are parts of democracy just like voting and marching." And in June 2024—a month before his appointment as resident dean—Davis posted on Instagram that people should "love each other and hate the police."
Other posts describe "whiteness" as a "self-destructive ideology that annihilates everyone around it," liken Trump to Adolf Hitler, and appear to celebrate the death of conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh.
A Harvard spokesman, Jonathan Palumbo, said the school could not comment on personnel matters but referred the Washington Free Beacon to a message Davis sent to Dunster House regarding the posts.
So how does one square that circle?
It's as if the university is saying: "Yeah, we know we vowed to protect conservative students and thought on our campus, but we really can't comment on Dean Davis' '[F]**k that guy and [i]f he dies, he dies' rant about the president of the United States being killed."
If this isn't a perfect example of university double-speak, what is?

Needless to say, Gregory Davis is far from unique in the bubble-dwelling world of so-called "higher education."
While conservative thought and expression are frowned upon, suppressed, or worse, on university campuses across America — publicly or otherwise — radical-leftist groupspeak remains their coveted coin of the realm.
As I wrote earlier in October, the Left — with smug university professors at or near the top of the radical heap — loves to preach the gospel of “diversity”— but only by their warped definition of the term. Race, gender, sexuality, and every imaginable identity box are regularly trumpeted by left-wing professors, yet when it comes to diversity of thought, they abhor it.
So by their warped "logic," intellectual diversity threatens the narratives and ideological monopoly on which so-called "progressivism" so desperately depends, yet a Harvard dean openly expressing he couldn't care less if the president of the United States dies or is killed, along with other hate-speech bilge, is apparently no big deal. Nothing to see here, folks, just move along.

Did I mention that Davis now claims his past disturbing comments "don't reflect [his] current thinking or beliefs"? Yeah. What a miraculous transformation, eh?
Check it out:
These posts do not reflect my current thinking or beliefs. I regret if my statements have any negative impact on the Dunster community.
Yet, according to Davis' online biography:
[A]s a Black, queer, neurodivergent (ADHD), first-generation, public school graduate from Detroit, please know that my office is as open and inclusive as the rest of me. I hope you feel comfortable showing off your whole self with me – even to just say hello.
Uh-huh. Raise your hand if you — assuming you're an avid Trump supporter — would be comfortable stopping by this dean's office just to say "hello."
According to Yard.Report:
Davis is not as ‘open and inclusive’ as he makes himself out to be. His social-media musings reveal that Davis harbors hostility toward White people, police, Republicans, and President Trump ... The university must fire him immediately.
Now raise your hand if you think Harvard will fire Davis.
This Brings Us Full Circle:
Of course, Harvard isn't going to fire Davis immediately — just as other left-wing universities don't tend to fire — immediately or otherwise — radical professors or university staff who rail against the same people and things Davis rails about.
Meanwhile, it continues to get crazier and crazier out there.
