Columbia University Faces Loss of Accreditation Over Antisemitism Allegations Amid Pro-Palestine Protests

In a major escalation of tensions, Columbia University Faces Loss of Accreditation Over Antisemitism Allegations Amid Pro-Palestine Protests. The U.S. Department of Education has formally notified Columbia University’s accrediting agency that the university is in violation of federal anti-discrimination laws. The department concluded that Columbia “acted with deliberate indifference” toward the harassment of Jewish students on campus during recent pro-Palestinian protests, putting its accreditation and hundreds of millions in federal funding at risk.
