Columbia ends suspensions of most students disciplined for anti-Israel protests
Columbia University is set to welcome back most students disciplined for their participation in anti-Israel protests. While recent reports reveal only two remain suspended from a larger group of 40 faced with consequences, ongoing investigations into antisemitism on campus continue to raise alarms.

Critics, including a Republican-led congressional panel, demand accountability for students who broke laws during protests, arguing that the university's leniency fuels an environment hostile to Jewish students. As tensions persist, university leadership seeks to navigate an increasingly volatile campus landscape.
