Summers called this female Chinese economist “peril.”
“Yellow peril” was partially built on the claim that Chinese women were sexually immoral threats.
That logic fueled the Page Act of 1875, which barred Chinese women by presuming they were prostitutes, even before the 1882 Chinese Exclusion Act.

The goal of this, btw, is to reduce the independence conferred by tenure. Tenure is designed to prevent *exactly this kind* of political interference. I think they've decided that they can't get rid of tenure, so this is the next best thing.

UC Provost Katherine Newman has announced plans to defund this program, a preemptive capitulation with the feds that has not been ordered and should not occur. Newman has done this with zero consultation with campus-level leadership and none with any faculty — mentors or former fellows included.
