A college professor of “peace” accused of teaching support for Hamas has been suspended from his tenured post at an ultra-liberal school after allegations he once ran a sex-for-grades scheme came to light.

Iranian citizen Mohammad Jafer Mahallati — who has called for the elimination of Israel and backed the murderous fatwa against Salman Rushdie — was discreetly put on indefinite administrative leave by Oberlin College, Ohio, and scrubbed from its website last month after the administration learned he had previously been accused of sexual harassment.

The college is currently being investigated by the federal Department of Education after a complaint that it abused the civil rights of Jewish students by allegedly letting Mahallati speak in favor of Hamas and give credit for writing anti-Israel screeds.

The move by Oberlin to suspend Mahallati, 71, comes amid mounting fury at colleges’ failure to grapple with antisemitism in the wake of the October 7 massacre of 1,200 Israelis by terrorist group Hamas.

The presidents of Harvard and the University of Pennsylvania faced demands to resign from a billionaire donor Wednesday and criticism from the White House after telling Congress it “depends on the context” as to whether students could demand the genocide of Jews.

Mahallati’s suspension came after court papers surfaced from the 1990s which revealed that when he was an adjunct professor at Columbia University, he had been accused of giving a graduate student 11 years his junior good grades in return for sex.

The papers, given to The Post by Middle East Forum, showed that Columbia and Mahallati had both been sued by the woman, whom The Post is not naming, accusing him of working to damage her reputation and academic future after she reported his alleged sexual abuse to school authorities.

Mahallati had denied the claims in 1997 but did not respond to a request for comment from The Post. Columbia denied the allegations at the time.

The woman, then 32 and a Palestinian Christian, met Mahallati, a 43-year-old married father of a young son, when she began to minor in Middle East Studies in September1995, she alleged in court papers.

She alleged that under the pretense of interviewing her as a potential research assistant, Mahallati invited the student to his home, “made repeated sexual advances” and promised good grades in exchange for sexual encounters, which allegedly took place at his office as well as his Manhattan apartment for 15 months.

Mahallati allegedly told the woman that he would withhold her grade if she did not keep silent. She alleged that when she went to Columbia’s administration in April 1997 he accused her of handing the same paper in twice, which would have been fraudulent.

When she sued, court records show that he tried to claim diplomatic immunity with a Dec. 1, 1997, letter from Iran’s Permanent Mission to the United Nations appointing him “‘Special Advisor in Political Affairs’ with full diplomatic and political privileges.”

He had been Iran’s ambassador to the United Nations between 1987 and 1989 and Columbia submitted a letter from the State Department to prove he was not immune from being sued for what he was accused of doing after 1989. The case was settled in 1998.

Andrea Simakis, a spokeswoman for Oberlin, told The Post he was placed on leave on Nov. 28 and declined to comment further. It is unclear exactly when the college learned of the 1990s claims against Mahallati.

“We take all allegations of sexual harassment and abuse extremely seriously,” said Simakis. “We would not hire a faculty member who we knew to have a history of sexual harassment of a student, colleague or staff member.”

At Oberlin, Mahallati became the subject of a federal probe this fall when the Department of Education’s Office of Civil Rights revealed that it was investigating a complaint that he taught students “support for Hamas and terrorism” as part of a larger probe into anti-Semitism on Oberlin’s campus.

The probe, which was opened on September 29, was prompted by a complaint filed in 2019 by Oberlin College graduate Melissa Landa. Landa, who graduated from Oberlin in 1986, is president of the Oberlin Chapter of Alums for Campus Fairness, a non-profit that works to end antisemitism.

She sent the department a dossier of anti-Jewish and anti-Israel incidents between 2014 and 2017, including that Mahallati told his classes in 2016 that “Israel is a colonialist state” and “an apartheid state.”

Oberlin said in November that it “abhors antisemitism” and said of Mahallati: “Professor Mahallati has stated that he believes in the right of all people to exist in peace and endorses a two-state solution that would allow the people of Israel and Palestine to peacefully coexist.”

Separately, a group of Iranian anti-regime activists, some of whom have had family members targeted by the Islamic Republic, had also complained about Mahallait, accusing him of being part of a cover-up of a mass murder of 5,000 political prisoners in 1988 when he was Iran’s ambassador to the United Nations.

It said in a statement: “This action comes as a result of tireless advocacy and stark revelations about Mahallati’s involvement in covering up human rights abuses and his antisemitic rhetoric.”

In addition to Columbia and Oberlin, Mahallati has also taught at Georgetown and Princeton.

Analyzing Invention: Some Data for the Inventor's Fair 2023

As a way of introduction, the Inventor's Fair is a Magic: the Gathering card design contest blog here on Tumblr. Each week, a contest is announced and members of the community submit designs throughout the week meeting the design specifications. At the end of the week, a few winners and runner-ups are selected, with commentary given by a series of judges. It's a fun exercise in creativity, one that I have participated since November 2022.

This past week, I decided to go back and compile some data about the blog, from January 1st, 2023 to Dec 2nd, 2023. I got some general data and then did a dive into data on the winners and runners-up. I would have loved to look at data for all of the entrants (on average, 23 each contest), but that was just a little too much for the time I have.

If this all sounds interesting to you, continue reading past the line.

To start, let's look at that general data:

Image: Line graph showing the weekly totals for entrants and a rolling 3-week average.

To start off, there have been 48 contests thus far during the year, with 4 more potentially planned (yes, Dec 31st would be the posting date for one of the contests, so it is technically a 2023 contest).

In the above graph, I included a 3-week rolling average as a trendline: basically the average shown for a week is the average of that week with the two weeks preceding).

The highest participation happened from February to mid-May, which corresponds to the Spring Semester in the US school system (my area of experience).

The contest with the greatest number of entrants: Teamwork Makes the Dream Work, which started on April 16 and had 36 entrants.

The contest with the lowest number of entrants: Re:Vision, which was the most recent contest and had only 8 entrants.

Now let's dive into some of the stats around the winners and runners-up:

Image: Bar graph showing the entry counts for winners and runners-up.

There have been 50 unique entrants who have been either a winner or a runner-up so far this year. Many entrants have been part of the contests since the beginning of the year. The most recent entrant to have their first win/runner-up was @aethernalstars, in the Nov 12th contest Lost Caverns of Ixalan's Lost Vault.

The entrants with the highest numbers of wins/runners-up so far:

@spooky-bard: 22 total, with 16 wins

@izzet-always-r-versus-u: 16 total, with 10 wins

@nine-effing-hells: 15 total, with 7 wins

@hypexion: 14 total, with 5 wins

(tie) @deg99 and @bread-into-toast: 13 total, with 8 and 7 wins

Congrats to these entrants for some spectacular submissions!

So what makes a winning entry? Mostly the awesome creativity of the entrants, but here are some stats about the cards themselves that I found interesting.

Image: Bar graph showing the card types of cards that were submitted and were selected as a winner or runner-up

By far the most popular card type was creature (and this includes Artifact Creature and Enchantment Creature submissions). Granted, there were several contests asking for creatures, like Rebels and Dragons. But it is such an overwhelming favorite that I just had to call it out.

As a note on other, I lumped things like planes and phenomenon into a single group, just to keep things simple (since there weren't that many)

Image: Pie (donut) chart showing the colors that were part of the color identity of cards submitted and selected as a winner or runner-up

Here, there has not been any contests for making cards in a specific color. However, red is a clear favorite among entrants. This is a mix of mono-red and multi-color including red cards. Black, white and blue are all closely tied for the 2nd most popular card, with green being fifth amongst the colors. I included colorless, but that being a low count is to be expected as I looked at color identity instead of cost, so many land submissions were pulled into one of the color categories.

Image: Table of the mana value of cards submitted submitted and selected as a winner or runner-up

Here, we see that the most common mana value of cards was 3 - 84 cards total! 4 (with 60) and 2 (with 41) came in 2nd and 3rd.

Image: Pie (donut) chart showing the rarities of cards submitted and selected as a winner or runner-up

Entrants seem to really like submitting Rares (114 total) and Uncommons (92 total), as they made up almost 75% of all entries. The number for commons will get a small bump from a recent contest that is currently being judged: One for the Money, but nowhere near enough to dethrone the other two.

SO, if you were to submit a card, it seems like the best chance for a winning submission is a red/partially red creature that is rare/uncommon and has a mana value of 3/4. Looks like a Santa Clause card is up for the next few weeks ;)

Anyways, I hope you've enjoyed this nerdy dive into some of the data behind the @inventors-fair of 2023. Looking forward to what y'all come up with in the next few weeks!

In Nov 2020 I drafted a post that said 2021 would have me exhaust my contributions to this blog and I'd probably just reblog old stuff occasionally to keep it going, if I did at all.

It's now 2024 and I still want to do this silly blog that I was asked to join in 2016 by its creator Frances. My document of unassigned quotes is 15 pages long; I just have to be in the mood to sit down and work sometimes to fill up the queue.

It means a lot that you continue to like and reblog the quotes here. Please don't hesitate to contribute and submit, too. The clue crew continues to be the best!

Happy New Year!

Mergwenthur Week 2022

November 13 - November 19, 2022

Mergwenthur Week 2022 is a week-long event dedicated celebrating the ship of Merlin, Gwen, and Arthur, consisting of a seven-day long prompt challenge. Each day has a word, trope, and color prompt assigned to it to reflect an aspect of Mergwenthur alongside an episode from the show.

All creators are welcome to participate. Content is open to fic, art, edits, gifs, manips, meta, poetry, podfic, and whatever else you can creatively come up with during these seven days.

You do not need to do something for each day. Participate as much or as little as you want.

You may tag #mergwenthurweek2022 and your content will be reblogged to our main Tumblr, mergwenthurweek.tumblr.com and our Twitter, Mergwenthurweek. If you are submitting to AO3, feel free to add your creations to the MergwenthurWeek2022 collection.

Please read the FAQ before sending an ask if you have questions.

HOW DO PROMPTS WORK?

The themes of each day are inspired by Mergwenthur. You can use the word prompts, trope prompts, or color prompts for whatever you make, or even write fix-it fics or make fanart related to the chosen episode.

The prompts are meant to inspire you, not box your creative muse in. You can interpret the prompts as literally or loosely as you want.

RULES

You may combine this fest with other ongoing challenges (ie: Merlin Bingo, Kinkalot, MerthurWeek, Tropemas, etc).

Each prompt days opens midnight in your time zone. However, there won’t be a deadline for when you post a prompt if it’s from an earlier day, and you have until the 13 of November to post. There will also be an amnesty week until the 26 for anyone who couldn’t post their fills in time. We understand it’s a hectic season for most of us. The event will officially end (and the AO3 collection will close) on November 26, 2022.

The last rule is to have fun. Please do not stress if you aren’t inspired for every prompt, and have fun creating!

Update setelah beberapa hari calming myself down: kemarin full seharian di rumah istirahat aja yang banyak. Malam juga berusaha untuk tidur cepat karena ternyata masih pusing-pusing dan hidung tersumbat betul-betul sepertinya akan kena flu sih ini (padahal udah vaksin flu?). 

Barusan akhirnya keluar rumah karena diajakin Hanif buat makan siang dan makanlah kami (aku, Hanif, dan Bang Reybi) di Nando’s George St. SANGAT ENAK, DAN SANGAT KENYANG HHH ALHAMDULILLAH YAALLAH. Sekarang ini di Radcam karena tadi keluar rumah nggak bawa laptop samsek (karena berat). Gatau juga goalnya apa ini kerja hari ini. Jujur masih belum bisa pick myself up banget sejak email rejection itu… Ku udah ngemail co-authors juga dan ngirim reviews-nya ke mereka dan setting up meeting Rabu pagi jam 10 sih… Udah booking konseling uni juga Selasa sore. Terus udah… Apa lagi yang harus dikerjain gatau… Dari besok postdocku bakal away sampe 20-an Nov(?) (lama juga ye dia pergi). Spvku malah baru balik besok. Hhhh emang ga jodoh aja schedule semua orang. Ku cukup yakin nanti Rabu yang dateng cuma 2 kolaborator dan postdocku, karena kedua spv-ku sudah bilang “gausah tungguin gw yah”, baiklah. Gapapa tapi udah ada yang bisa aja udah bagus. 

Ku masih mayan upset tapi ga separah Minggu dan Senin kemarin sih. Terus ku dapat message sangat baik dari Mba Mita HUHU (cc @peminumteh) yang membuatku sadar bahwa ku udah bisa ngeluarin ke jurnal aja tuh untuk anak PhD tahun ke-3 (kemarin pertama kali submit Nov 2022 --- WOW SUDAH SETAHUN YANG LALU???) udah keren banget. Dan beneran sih, kadang suka ngerasa ga enak gitu kalau share lagi sedih kena reject gini ke teman-teman se-office gitu misalnya. Ada yang setahun di atasku masih berkutat dengan mikroskop lagi ngejar submit dan belum dapet cc buat submit ke luar, ada juga yang seangkatan-ku dan baru mau di-acc chapter 1-nya (BARU MAU dibaca). And here I am yang chapter 1 ini udah dibaca ber-RATUS-RATUS kali oleh >5 orang (including reviewers dan editors ada 10 orang kali), terus menangis karena dibilang tulisannya kureng. Betul-betul untitled kid. 

BERSUKUR NONNNNN. Tapi ya valid juga kan ngerasa sedih walaupun at the same time juga bersyukur?? Apakah keduanya ekstrim polar opposite? Apakah kalau kita sedih dapet 98 instead of 100 artinya kita ga bersukur sama si 98 itu? Kan nggak juga??? Jujur sekarang w adalah Jimin. HAHA RANDOM tapi kalau kalian nonton documentary-nya BTS di Burn The Stage, Jimin MENANGIS after going off-key YANG MANA GAADA ORANG YANG NYADAR YA TOLONG. Ku pas nonton itu kaya upset banget kaya ??? BRO SEHAT??? Terus yaudah sekarang I’m just Jimin?? Kayak… NON SEHAT??? 

Ainna kemarin juga ngasih komen sangat baik di postingan sebelumnya (HUHU terima kasih Ainna *emoji peluk*). Terus banyak deh replies dari teman-teman lain di insta setelah ku-post skrinsot-an post terakhir tumblr juga di insta. 

Udah sih. Plannya weekend ini cuma kelas aja Sabtu-Minggu jam 8-10, terus mengundang Aji dkk mau masak opor di rumah di hari Minggu… Oh iya, dari kemarin juga lagi ngabisin Brooklyn Nine-Nine lagi setelah sekian lama dan emang kadang ada episode yang bobrok banget aja lucu banget sampai ku ingin menangis (fav-ku masih interaksi kebodoran antara Jake dan Captain Holt). Belum lama juga abis ngabisin Lupin. Lagi pengen nonton yang drama-drama sampah gitu deh padahal, modelan PLL atau Revenge. Ada seri apa lagi sih, recommend me tvshow dong anyone. 

Udah itu dulu aj for now. Wishing you all good rest of the week!

POSTING CLAIMS ARE THIS WEEKEND

Hello, all! We just sent out an email with a reminder about posting claims and a link to the claims form, which will open at 8:00AM CST on September 9 and close at 11:59PM CST on September 10.

You can find our posting expectations here.

A few reminders for posting:

Only one team member needs to submit the claims form. It can be anyone on the team.

Any date between October 1, 2023 - January 15, 2024 can be claimed.

To try to keep posting somewhat even, we are only allowing three team slots per day for posting. Once all slots are taken, that day will no longer be available. If needed, we may open a fourth slot on some days. Days are claimed on a first-come, first-serve basis during claims weekend.

All members of the team are expected to be 100% completed and ready to post their projects on the date chosen, so be sure to communicate with your teammates about what day works best for everyone. Accommodations can be made if requested!

We will have a two week extension period set aside from January 16 - January 31, 2024. Those two weeks will be assigned when extensions are requested after posting claims.

*Note: If you haven't received an email with the link to the claims form, please let a mod know!

Additionally, due to some mod changes and general requests for more time, we have shifted around and updated the bang schedule.

As always, you can find the most up-to-date schedule here.

The main takeaways from the new schedule are:

We have gotten rid of our 90% check-in. Instead, our September check-in will be for the 75% draft for writers and a 50% completion check for artists. That will be our only check-in.

The final deadline has been shifted back from October 1 to November 1. October is remaining as a potential posting month for those teams who are already completed, but no one will be required to be done until Nov. 1.
