Apr 22, 2024, 03:03 AM
A series of antisemitic protests at Columbia University has sparked widespread condemnation from political leaders, including President Joe Biden, and calls for legislative action such as the 'Stop Antisemitism on College Campuses Act'. The protests, characterized by threatening behavior towards Jewish students and detailed in a Columbia Chabad email, have been described as 'un-American' and 'vile'. President Biden, along with several lawmakers, emphasized the inappropriateness of such actions on college campuses, highlighting the need for a safe educational environment. The White House and other officials have stressed that antisemitism has no place in educational settings or anywhere in the U.S., urging Columbia to take immediate action to protect its students, specifically criticizing Columbia University President Shafik for her handling of the situation.
