Neri Oxman,<\/strong> an architect and former MIT professor, as well as the wife of billionaire Bill Ackman,<\/strong> apologized Thursday for multiple instances of plagiarism in her 2010 dissertation that were reported<\/a> by Business Insider.<\/p>\n In the article, reporters Katherine Long<\/strong> and Jack Newsham<\/strong> wrote that Oxman had cited two authors, but did not use quotation marks around material plagiarized from their paper, and paraphrased a book without including a citation. In a post on X, responding to the story, Oxman wrote: \u201cI regret and apologize for these errors.\u201d<\/p>\n This content can also be viewed on the site it originates<\/a> from.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Oxman\u2019s husband, Ackman, has recently been in the news, regarding academia, over his push to oust former Harvard president Claudine Gay,<\/strong> who resigned from her post earlier this week. Ackman had called for Gay to be fired over her response to antisemitism at the university, and instances of plagiarism that had surfaced over the last several months. (In December, Harvard said<\/a> Gay had requested corrections on two of her papers and would be updating her dissertation in several spots.) He has since called for members of Harvard\u2019s governing board to step down.<\/p>\n In response to the Business Insider article, and Oxman\u2019s apology, Ackman wrote<\/a>: \u201cYou know that you struck a chord when they go after your wife, in this case my love and partner in life, @NeriOxman. I am one of the most fortunate people in the universe in large part because of Neri. Please see her post below about today\u2019s Business Insider piece about her dissertation. Part of what makes her human is that she makes mistakes, owns them, and apologizes when appropriate.\u201d<\/p>\n Fox News processes a stronger-than-expected jobs report<\/strong><\/p>\n This content can also be viewed on the site it originates<\/a> from.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\nX content<\/h4>\n
