Columbia University has been martyred for violating the Federal Civil Rights Law by “acting with deliberate indifference to student harassment and student of Jewish students” since the terrorist attack on October 7, 2023 on Israel.
This is the latest measure of the Trump administration against prominent universities. On Thursday, the Trump administration prevented Harvard University from allowing international students to register at the university-a step that the university said is not legal-because they “transformed their bone day into a focus of Abyel Jackson, against America.
HHS claimed that Colombia violated the sixth chapter, which prohibits those who receive federal financial assistance from discrimination in its programs and activities on the basis of race, color or national origin – including discrimination against individuals based on their actual or perceived Israeli identity.
In its announcement, the government said that the notice, from both HHS and the Ministry of Education, “expresses widespread realistic results that extend for more than 19 months in which the university has been constantly failed to protect Jewish students.” “The results are based on the information and documents obtained during the investigation, including witness interviews; examination of written policies and procedures; reliable media reports that capture anti -Semitic incidents and events at the University of Colombia; and reports of the Colombia University’s work group on anti -Smot.”
“The results are carefully documented that the Jewish students of the hostile environment at Columbia University had to carry more than 19 months, which led to the disruption of their education, safety and well -being,” said Anthony Archiv, the Civil Rights Office at HHS. “We encourage Colombia to work with us to reach an agreement that reflects meaningful changes that really protect Jewish students.

The government said that Colombia University has failed to take many measures, including the failure to create effective reports mechanisms to anti -Semitism until the summer of 2024, and fail to adhere to its policies and procedures when responding to the complaints of Jewish students as well as misconduct against Jewish students and not investigating the classroom in their classes.
Colombia University has not publicly responded to these allegations by the federal government.
In March, the university agreed to the list of demands from the Trump administration after it canceled a $ 400 million grant and contracts to the institution because of “the continued progress in the face of the continuous harassment of Jewish students,” according to a statement issued by the Trump administration in that month.
“Among them was practicing more strict controls on the university’s Middle Eastern Studies Department and examining campus activities since the anniversary of Hamas’s attack on Israel.
In a statement issued from March 19, interim President Katrina Armstrong said: “Entalimacy of Semitism, harassment, and discrimination of any unacceptable kind and does not show our feeling of society as well as our very academic mission.”
