Dion J. Pierre Algemeiner, Mar. 25, 2025 “During a mutinous meeting with angry faculty, Armstrong reportedly said, among other things, that the anti-mask ban — a policy that is widely supported by the Jewish community for achieving the same end as federal anti-Ku-Klux-Klan laws — will not be enacted.” Columbia University interim president Katrina Armstrong […]
Noah Rothman National Review, Mar. 25, 2025 “Whether because of institutional capture or its lethargic leadership, it had become unavoidably clear that Columbia could not restore a climate of free inquiry to its campus on its own.

Jonathan S. Tobin JNS, Mar. 25, 2025 “If chants for violence against African Americans or Hispanics were routinely voiced—or takeovers of school buildings on behalf of the efforts of hate groups or terrorists targeting those groups, such as the Ku Klux Klan or neo-Nazis—had taken place, everyone knows what would have followed.” Progressive academics have been among […]

Ailin Vilches Arguello Algemeiner, Mar. 7, 2025 “Faced with this hostility and in order to protect themselves, students try to remain in the background: hiding their Jewish identity or their connection to Israel, and being careful not to respond to the challenges and accusations from their peers, which are often directed at them through the […]
