Columbia University has removed three administrators from their positions and will keep them on indefinite leave.
Columbia University said Monday that it has removed three administrators from their positions and will keep them on leave indefinitely after finding that text messages they exchanged during a campus discussion about Jewish life “disturbingly touched on ancient antisemitic tropes.
It revealed, at best, an ignorance of the history of antisemitism.” The news outlet, the Washington Free Beacon, published examples on June 12 and 21 of what it said were some of the text exchanges. Among them was a message suggesting that a panelist could have used recent campus protests as a fundraising opportunity and another that appeared critical of a campus rabbi’s essay about antisemitism.
