Major Foundation Cuts Ties With Harvard Over School’s Response to Hamas Attack on Israel as Professors Scramble to do Damage Control


Wexner Foundation says it’s terminating Harvard University relationship

The Wexner Foundation is ending its relationship with Harvard University.

The non-profit informed the Ivy League school and its board of overseers of its intentions to do so in a Monday letter. It is closely connected to billionaire L Brands founder Leslie Wexner and his wife Abigail Wexner, whose names appear on the letter as chairs of the foundation. L Brands once owned retail outlets such as The Limited, Victoria’s Secret, PINK, Bath & Body Works, Henri Bendel and Lane Bryant. 

The couple created the Wexner Foundation, which describes its focus as being on developing Jewish and Israeli leadership, decades ago… 

“We are stunned and sickened at the dismal failure of Harvard’s leadership to take a clear and unequivocal stand against the barbaric murders of innocent Israeli civilians by terrorists last Saturday, the Sabbath and a festival day,” the non-profit said. Meanwhile, professors at Harvard are scrambling to distance themselves and the school from the letter that was signed by the student groups.
