Yale Bars Professor David Gelernter From Teaching Amid Epstein Email Review
Yale suspended Gelernter after DOJ-released emails showed he described a student in sexualized terms while recommending her for a job with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
- Yale said Wednesday that it has barred Professor David Gelernter from teaching while reviewing his contacts with Jeffrey Epstein, and students were notified on Tuesday.
- The U.S. Department of Justice's late-January release of Epstein files showed an October 2011 email where Gelernter recommended a Yale senior described as a "v small goodlooking blonde."
- Gelernter told Dean Jeffrey Brock he was recommending the student for a job she wanted and defended the note, forwarding the exchange to colleagues and media outlets last week.
- Yale said it does not condone the professor's manner of providing recommendations and has launched a review, with inquiries handled by the Office of Public Affairs & Communications.
- Gelernter's name appears in 563 entries in the DOJ's Epstein Library, covering 2009–2015, following wider fallout that led Larry Summers, former Harvard University president, to step back.
