Trump administration finds Columbia University violated Jewish students' civil rights
- The Trump administration found that Columbia University violated Title VI of the Civil Rights Act by failing to protect Jewish students from harassment since October 2023.
- This finding follows investigations linked to increased antisemitic incidents coinciding with the Israel-Hamas conflict and the creation of a federal task force combating antisemitism.
- Columbia was accused of ignoring vandalism, not enforcing protest rules, and delaying effective antisemitism policies until mid-2024 despite extensive complaints and campus unrest.
- In March 2024, the administration canceled $400 million in grants to the university and demanded new protest rules, mask bans, accountability measures, and program reviews to protect Jewish students.
- Columbia announced policy changes in cooperation with the government, while officials urged agreements reflecting meaningful reform to ensure Jewish students’ safety and educational well-being.
