Cambridge Professor Resigns Amid Plagiarism Probe | Adelaide News
Description
Cambridge’s youngest Black professor, Jason Arday, has resigned amid a fresh plagiarism probe into his PhD thesis — a move he says is about ending a painful chapter, not admitting fault. Accusations have sparked debate over racism in academia, with an open letter rallying 15,000+ supporters who see the investigation as part of a broader effort to silence influential Black voices. While the university calls the claims a “vile campaign,” Jesus College is launching its own inquiry. His memoir remains on schedule for release, and Arday vows to return to his work after healing.
