Just hours after Liz Magill resigned as president of the University of Pennsylvania over the evasive answers she and two other academic leaders gave at a House hearing this week, they were being mocked on the Saturday Night Live cold open.
So was Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY), the Trump-supporting congresswoman whose queries nevertheless triggered a bipartisan furor directed at university presidents. When asked whether someone calling “for the genocide of Jews” would violate the schools’ code of conduct, they did not answer “yes” or “no” and instead gave nuanced responses.
The SNL skit, staged as C-SPAN coverage, the three university presidents gave even more opaque answers.
“So I will ask you straight up: Do you think genocide is bad?” asked Stefanik, played by Chloe Troast.
“Could I submit an answer in writing at a later date?” one of the presidents answers.
More to come.
