Columbia Faces Lawsuits Contending It Has ‘Failed To Protect Jewish Students’ From ‘Radical Elements’ on Campus

Jewish students at Columbia are taking to the courts, claiming that the university is failing to keep them safe from the antisemitic pro-Palestinian protests that have been roiling the campus in recent months, culminating in the takeover of an administration building last week.

They claim it violates Columbia’s own policies, as well as the Civil Rights Act, which bars discrimination in federally funded activities.
