Peter Burgess COMMENTARY
I am glad that I learned a bit more about Minouche Shafik over and beyond what I have seen in the last few weeks related to the student protests at Columbia University

I think my daughter would relate a bit to some of Minouche Shafil's family history. Her mother grew up in Egypt in a British family working with a British company ... that was expropriated when Nasser took control of the country and most Brits were expelled!

Over the years I have had many Egyptian friends, some of whom I have worked with in various parts of the Middle East. I find it helpful to remind myself that Egyptians were intellectually powerful thousands of years back ... and Minouche seems to have some of that gene!

Her recent experience with protests at Columbia probably does not match well with her top abilities. I am British (84 years old) but have lived in the USA since the mid-1960s. Compared to most of the rich developed world the US operates in a rather clumsy way with a very simplistic set of 'rights' and associated laws, rules and regulations. For me, the idea that a man like Donald Trump could get anywhere near the White House and the Presidency of the country suggests a system that is terribly flawed.

When I was at Cambridge University at the end of the 1950s there was plenty of robust discussion amongst the students. It was unconstrained because it was something of a tradition that when it comes to 'speach' ... anything goes!

But there was also another unwritten rule ... an accepted practice, if you will ... that the outragous speach and to some extent more physical action would not get into the newspapers but remain a matter to be handled by students and faculty in a 'civilised' manner.

My generation of students were not 'quiet' but we did not get into the public limelight in the way it is happening today 60+ years later.

Nemat Talaat Shafik, Baroness Shafik, DBE, HonFBA (born 13 August 1962) commonly known as Minouche Shafik (Arabic: نعمت شفيق) is an Egyptian-born American economist who has been serving as the 20th president of Columbia University since July 2023. She previously served as president and vice chancellor of the London School of Economics from 2017 to 2023. She also serves on the board of directors of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Previously, Shafik served as deputy governor of the Bank of England from 2014 to 2017 and permanent secretary of the United Kingdom Department for International Development from 2008 to 2011.[2] She has also served as a vice president at the World Bank[3] and as deputy managing director of the International Monetary Fund.[4] Early life and education Shafik was born in Alexandria, Egypt, to parents who were both educators.[5] Her father was also a scientist and wealthy landowner.[6][7] As a child, she went to Schutz American School. When she was 4, the Egyptian government seized her father's property[8] and the family moved to Savannah, Georgia in the mid-1960s, then to Miami and Raleigh, North Carolina.[9] Shafik graduated Bachelor of Arts, summa cum laude and Phi Beta Kappa, with a major in economics and politics from the University of Massachusetts Amherst in 1983; she gained a Master of Science degree in economics from the London School of Economics in 1986; and a Doctorate of Philosophy in economics from the University of Oxford, in 1989.[10] Career After Oxford, Shafik joined the World Bank and held a variety of roles, starting in the research department where she worked on global economic modelling and forecasting and then later on environmental issues. She moved to do macroeconomic work on Europe and the Middle East where she published a number of books and articles on the region's economic future, the economics of peace, labour markets, regional integration, and gender issues.[11] At age 36, Shafik became the World Bank's youngest-ever Vice President.[12][13] Shafik has held academic appointments, both as adjunct professor in the Economics Department at Georgetown University from 1989 to 1994, and as Visiting associate professor at the Wharton Business School of the University of Pennsylvania in Spring 1996.[14] She initially went to the British Government's Department for International Development (DFID) on secondment as Director General for Country Programmes where she was responsible for all of DFID's overseas offices and financing across Africa, the Middle East, Asia, Latin America, and Eastern Europe. She was appointed as DFID's Permanent Secretary in 2008 where she managed a bilateral aid programme in over 100 countries, multilateral policies and financing for the United Nations, European Union and international financial institutions, and overall development policy and research – responsible for 2400 staff and a budget of £38 billion (about US$60 billion) for 2011–2014.[15] Shafik served as IMF Deputy Managing Director from April 2011 until March 2014. As Deputy Managing Director, she oversaw the IMF's work in Europe and the Middle East, a $1 billion administrative budget, human resources for its 3,000 staff and the IMF's training and technical assistance for policy makers around the world.[16] Shafik joined the Bank of England as its first Deputy Governor on Markets and Banking responsible for the Bank's £500 billion balance sheet and served as a Member of the bank's Monetary Policy Committee, Financial Policy Committee and the Board of the Prudential Regulatory Authority. She led the Bank's Fair and Effective Markets review to tackle misconduct in financial markets. London School of Economics On 12 September 2016, it was announced that Shafik had been appointed as the next Director of the London School of Economics, replacing sociologist Craig Calhoun. She took up the post on 1 September 2017.[17] During Shafik's directorship of the LSE, levels of academic casualisation increased, with the number of academics on fixed term contracts increasing from 55 percent in 2016 through 2017 to 59 percent in 2021 through 2022, according to Higher Education Statistical Agency data.[18] This rise occurred in contrast to many other universities in the UK, where the number of permanent staff grew during this same period.[18] As a result, the student-to-permanent staff ratio at LSE decreased during Shafik's directorship and had, as of July 2023, the worst student-to-permanent staff ratio among comparable universities in the UK, according to HESA data.[18] In response to a legal strike action taken by UCU in the summer of 2023, overpay, and casualised working conditions, the LSE management, under Shafik's directorship, decided to impose punitive pay deductions on academic staff participating in the action.[19] The LSE made the decision to impose 50 percent pay deductions, starting on June 16,[19] but as no deductions were taken until the end of July, some participating staff received July payslips deducting 75 percent of their income for that month. In addition to imposing pay deductions, the LSE management, under Shafik's directorship, pushed through an 'Exceptional Degree Classification Schemes' policy, in response to the strike action.[20] Under this scheme, undergraduates can be awarded provisional degrees on the basis of only approximately 85 to 90 percent of their grades and Masters students, only 75 percent of their grades.[20] In the event that the full and final assessment (100 percent of their grades) would lower their classification, the higher provisional classification would stand.[20] This policy allowed students to graduate on time, but effectively lowered the standards of LSE degrees, awarded during the strike action. President of Columbia University On 18 January 2023, It was announced that Shafik would become the next President of Columbia University, starting 1 July 2023.[21][22] After the Israel–Hamas conflict intensified in October 2023, and an altercation concerning an Israeli student leading to legal action, Shafik issued a statement saying that if 'speech is unlawful or violates University rules, it will not be tolerated'.[23] While some[who?] said she should have done more to protect Jewish students from anti-Semitic violence on campus,[23][24] many[who?] raised concerns over her decision to suspend pro-Palestine student groups such as Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP) and Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) from the campus for repeatedly violated University policies relating to on campus events which were changed by Shafik's administration without input or dialogue with the University Senate or announcing the changes to the student body. This move sparked a faculty revolt, as many[who?] saw it as a suppression of free speech and academic freedom.[25] In November 2023, Shafik was invited to attend the 2023 United States Congress hearing on antisemitism, but declined citing a scheduling conflict.[26][27] She later gave testimony before the United States House Committee on Education & the Workforce on April 17, 2024, along with David Greenwald and Claire Shipman, co-chairs of the Trustees of Columbia University.[1] Shafik has also been criticised by the student body and many faculty by her lack of concrete actions or protections for students by her administration in the face of harassment, intimidation, and assault. April 2024 student arrest order Shafik has opposed the ongoing campus occupation by pro-Palestinian demonstrators that began on April 17, 2024. On April 18, she called on and authorised the NYPD to 'begin clearing the encampment from the South Lawn of Morningside campus' that was set up to protest the war in Gaza. The protest called for the university's divestment from companies profiting off of 'Israeli apartheid, genocide and occupation in Palestine', an academic boycott of Israeli institutions via the cancelation of the Tel Aviv global center and dual degree program, full financial transparency into the university's investments, as well as other demands concerning gentrification of the Harlem community, over-policing on campus, and censorship in the classroom.[28] The NYPD employed its Strategic Response Group to arrest over 100 protestors, the most since the 1968 Columbia University protests, as well as several legal observers[29] that were there to document the police's actions.[30][31][32][33] In his comments about the removal of protesters, NYPD Police Chief of Patrol John Chell clarified that it was Minouche Shafik, not the NYPD who had identified the demonstration as a 'clear and present danger'.[34] He further commented: 'To put this in perspective, the students that were arrested were peaceful, offered no resistance whatsoever, and were saying what they wanted to say in a peaceful manner'.[34] Shafik's actions in ordering the arrests were criticised by the American Association of University Professors, PEN America, Serene Jones, president of Union Theological Seminary, and the Columbia College Student Council.[35][36][37] Others, however, such as Virginia Foxx, chair of the United States House Committee on Education & the Workforce were 'glad' to see Shafik take the 'long overdue step of inviting the New York Police Department to clear this radical, unauthorized encampment.'[38] Academic work Shafik on the far right with Barack Obama and Christine Lagarde Shafik has authored Prospects for the Middle East and North African Economies: from Boom to Bust and Back? (1998) and What We Owe Each Other: A New Social Contract for a Better Society (2021). She was also the editor of Economic Challenges Facing Middle Eastern and North African Countries (1998)[39][40] She has written articles for publications including Oxford Economic Papers,[41] The Columbia Journal of World Business,[2] The Middle East Journal,[42] Journal of African Finance and Economic Development, World Development, and the Journal of Development Economics. Other activities Shafik has chaired several international consultative groups including: the Consultative Group to Assist the Poor, the Energy Sector Management Assistance Programme,[43] the Global Water and Sanitation Program,[44] Cities Alliance,[45] InfoDev,[46] the Public-Private Infrastructure Advisory Facility,[47] and the Global Corporate Governance Forum.[48] She served on a number of boards including the Middle East Advisory Group to the International Monetary Fund,[49] and the Economic Research Forum for the Arab World, Iran and Turkey.[50] She is also active on the board and as a mentor to the Minority Ethnic Talent Association which supports under-represented groups to advance to senior positions in the civil service.[51] Shafik currently serves as a Trustee of the British Museum,[52] the Council of the Institute for Fiscal Studies,[53] the Task Force on Fiscal Policy for Health,[54] the New Economy Forum,[55] and the Per Jacobsson Foundation.[56] In 2021, she was appointed to the Pandemic Preparedness Partnership (PPP), an expert group chaired by Patrick Vallance to advise the G7 presidency held by the government of Prime Minister Boris Johnson.[57] Safik was appointed as a trustee of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation in January 2022.[58] In a piece published on the International Monetary Fund's website, as part of the promotion of her book, What We Owe Each Other: A New Social Contract, Shafik indicated that she was worried about 'cancel culture' on university campuses, commenting: 'The point of university is to be intellectually challenged and confronted with difference.' She argued that universities needed to 'teach people to have difficult conversations', adding: “It’s through that process of listening that you learn, you build consensus, and you move forward as a community.'[59] Recognition Shafik was made a Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire (DBE) in the June 2015 Queen's Birthday Honours.[60] She was named 'GG2 Woman of the Year' in 2009.[61] She was named as one of Forbes 100 most powerful women in 2015[62][63] and received the 100 Women in Finance European Industry Leaders Award in 2019.[64] She was gazetted as Baroness Shafik, of Camden in the London Borough of Camden and of Alexandria in the Arab Republic of Egypt, in the 2020 Political Honours and was introduced to the House of Lords on 15 October 2020.[65][66] She sits as a crossbencher and made her maiden speech on 28 January 2021.[67] Shafik took a leave of absence from the House of Lords in July 2023.[68] Shafik was elected an honorary fellow of the British Academy in 2021[69] and was awarded an honorary doctorate from Utrecht University.[70] Personal life Shafik married economist Mohamed El-Erian in 1990 during their time working for the World Bank and International Monetary Fund, respectively.[71][72] In 2002, Shafik married her second husband, scientist Raffael Jovine, with whom she has twin children and three stepchildren.[60][73] Her daughter Olivia Jovine graduated from Columbia University's urban planning program.[74] Shafik is a dual American and British citizen and speaks English, Arabic, and French.[13][75] References
