After Battle, Barnard Professor Given Tenure

Submitted by Barbara S. Dobbin, Nov 2, 2007 17:50

Columbia, like many other colleges and Universities in America, takes lots of money from the Saudis and have done so for many decades. Consequently, the bias on campus is definitely pro-Palistinian.

Furthermore, the money many alumni give the school does not add up to the amount of the above noted donations by the Saudis and the other Arab Islamists. (Note: Edward Said was a leading professor with anit-Israel bias for years!).

The bias on campus is well-known. Just check out the work done by Charles Jacobs and The David Project, which reveals anti-semitism and anti-Israel bias on college campuses.
