Discover the heated debate at Columbia University involving campus antisemitism and student protests. Shocking moments captured during ongoing demonstrations at the prestigious university!
Columbia University President Nemat Shafik found herself in the hot seat as she, along with other university officials, testified before Congress about combating antisemitism on campus. The discussion quickly turned into a free-speech debate amid student protests, with at least four individuals arrested during a Pro-Palestine rally on campus. The tension escalated as protesters vowed to stay until Columbia divested from Israel-related issues. Shafik's firm stand against antisemitism was highlighted as shocking video footage captured intense moments during the protests, including declarations in support of Hamas.
Amid the chaos, Columbia University's diverse sports teams were still making headlines, with track and field, baseball, softball, and men's tennis featured in the latest edition of Lions on the Road.

In a surprising twist, anti-woke Republicans targeted Columbia University, leading to a debate on illiberal agendas on campuses. Meanwhile, anti-Israel agitators lit flares outside the university's campus as part of the 'Gaza Solidarity Encampment,' shortly after Shafik's testimony. The ongoing protests continue to stir controversy and raise questions about the intersection of free speech, protests, and campus policies.
