35 Harvard Professors Retract Support for Letter Questioning Results of Comaroff Investigations

Nearly all Harvard professors who signed a letter questioning misconduct investigations into John Comaroff have retracted their support. The professors expressed concerns about transparency and university procedures but withdrew support after a lawsuit detailed sexual harassment allegations against Comaroff. While some faculty, like Harvard Law School professors David W. Kennedy and Randall L. Kennedy, declined to retract their support, many expressed regret for their initial stance, citing the impact on students and the need for due process.
