Three Columbia University Deans, Including Josef Sorett, Placed on Leave Over Disparaging Texts During Antisemitism Panel
Jun 22, 2024, 12:10 AM
Three deans from Columbia University have been placed on administrative leave after exchanging dismissive and disparaging text messages during a panel on antisemitism held on May 31. The texts mocked the remarks of panelists, including Columbia's top Hillel official, and described the comments as 'hard to listen to' and using the discussion for its 'huge' impact. The dean of Columbia College, Josef Sorett, was also implicated in the scandal after a new text message obtained by the Free Beacon showed him further mocking the Hillel official's remarks. This incident has sparked controversy and calls for accountability within the university.
