Federal Review Targets Columbia University Over Antisemitism Concerns

The Trump administration is scrutinizing over $5 billion in federal funding to Columbia, citing failures to address antisemitism and protect Jewish students.

The federal government announced a review of Columbia University's federal contracts and grants, potentially impacting over $50 million in active contracts and $5 billion in commitments.
The multi-agency task force, created by President Trump, cited Columbia's alleged failure to address harassment of Jewish students and uphold civil rights obligations.
Recent incidents at Columbia include protests disrupting classes, antisemitic flyers, building occupations, and clashes that sent a staff member to the hospital.
Columbia University has stated its commitment to combatting antisemitism and ensuring campus safety, while disciplinary actions have been taken against some involved in protests.
An Anti-Defamation League report rated Columbia with a D for addressing antisemitism, highlighting ongoing challenges at U.S. colleges despite some nationwide improvements.
