Columbia Punishes 22 Students for Pro-Palestine Protests, Activist Group Says

Columbia University has taken disciplinary action against 22 students involved in a campus protest calling for the university to cut ties with companies linked to the Israeli military, an activist group said.
Columbia University Apartheid Divest (CUAD) claimed that Columbia University and its affiliate, Barnard College, expelled nine students, calling it the “most number of expulsions ever issued in university history.”
“Columbia’s extreme reaction is a sign that the administration has lost all control of the narrative, desperate to still defend their genocidal record,” CUAD stated in a post on X.
The disciplinary measures follow the ongoing detention of Mahmoud Khalil, a Columbia student and green card holder, who was arrested by US immigration authorities due to his involvement in the pro-Palestine protests.
