UPenn leaders attempt to lure back donor support after antisemitism backlash: report
Consequences. Stay strong, O UPenn donors!
[NYPOST] The University of Pennsylvania is desperately trying to rally donor support after many of its deep-pocketed benefactors closed their checkbooks over the Ivy League school’s failure to quickly condemn Hamas
...always the voice of sweet reason...
’ terror attack on Israel — weeks after it played host to a controversial pro-Paleostinian festival, according to a report.

Scott Bok, chair of UPenn’s board of trustees, has been forced to defend school president Elizabeth Magill and his own positions after a group of alumni and students demanded the duo step down, citing mounting antisemitism on campus and Bok’s treatment of some of the school’s Jewish trustees, Bloomberg reported.

In recent days, Bok — the CEO of investment bank Greenhill & Co. — and Magill have reportedly been frantically phoning members of UPenn’s board in an attempt to rally support and quell opposition from donors led by Apollo Management CEO Marc Rowan.

"Our existing leadership team, with the guidance of our large and diverse trustee group, is best suited to take the university forward," Bok told the outlet.
"You can't do better than Liz and I! Don't fire me!"
"Change, particularly if perceived as being forced by the withholding of contributions, would serve to only increase division within the broad university community.
