What She Has To Say About It
Chua denies the accusations surrounding what she dubs "Dinner Party-Gate." In a recent interview with the Times, she maintains that she did nothing wrong, and had simply had a handful of students over on a few afternoons to discuss their concerns and offer advice.
"I met with Professor Chua to discuss a deeply distressing experience I had, an experience that hinged on my race and identity," one student, who is Asian, told the Times.
In April, Chua took to Twitter to fire off a series of tweets about the controversy, calling it a "hit job... full of false allegations."
"I did not violate any agreement, nor have I been hosting wild parties during COVID. On the contrary, what I HAVE done is comforted a small handful of students who reached out to me in moments of crisis..."
She continued, "As the only Asian American woman on the academic faculty, I can’t imagine any other faculty member would be treated with this kind of disrespect and utter lack of due process."
Whether or not this issue is an example of "cancel culture" in action, the students and faculty at Yale appear to remain divided. Who knew an (alleged) dinner party could result in so much drama?!
