Harvard and Bard face fresh questions from lawmakers over ties to Epstein

Lawmakers are probing Harvard University and Bard College over their connections to convicted child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, who allegedly used his ties to these institutions to evade detection while trafficking women. Democrat Jamie Raskin, a key figure in the House judiciary committee, is demanding a thorough investigation and an interview with Bard's outgoing president. This inquiry could reveal how influential figures leverage academic prestige for personal gain and raise questions about the universities' oversight and ethical standards.
