"Plagiarism saves time" --Stephen Hawking"Another one bites the dust" [a song by John Deacon formerly of Queen--I don't want to get bagged for plagiarism] in the DEI elite university community. Yes, another scholar of sorts has been accused of plagiarism.
Alade McKen the chief DEI officer of Columbia University Irving Medical Center had been accused of doing the Wikipedia research for his PhD and did not cite sources, as reported by the Washington Free Beacon.
The Free Beacon published a bombshell report regarding the anonymous claims made against McKen in his 163-page dissertation, "UBUNTU I am because we are: A case study examining the experiences of an African-centered Rites of Passage program within a community-based organization."

The allegations claim that about 20 percent of McKen's dissertation was lifted from Wikipedia and there are more than two pages nearly verbatim facsimile of the websites' entry on ‘Afrocentric education,’ which is not cited anywhere in the dissertation," the Free Beacon wrote.
So first they came for Claudine Gay of Harvard and now they're coming for Alade McKen of Columbia. I wonder whether they should come for Jill Biden next.
