Columbia University just suspended over 65 students and banned 33 people from campus after the library takeover by pro-Hamas students earlier this week.

Here’s the news via Bloomberg:

Columbia University has suspended more than 65 students on an interim basis pending investigation and barred 33 individuals from campus after dozens of pro-Palestine protesters stormed the school’s main library during finals week.

That number may change as investigations proceed following the arrest of 80 participants in the demonstration on Wednesday, said an official at the New York City-based university.

Police entered Butler Library hours after demonstrators, many wearing face coverings and keffiyehs, took over part of the building and draped Palestinian flags along its walls. The protesters burst in as hundreds of students were preparing for final exams, plastering stickers and drawing on walls and desks, according to images posted on the protest group’s X account.

Police cleared the protesters on Wednesday evening, and Columbia reopened the library the next day. The Ivy League university’s acting president, Claire Shipman, fiercely criticized the protesters.

My how things are different with a new POTUS who will stand up to colleges who allow antisemitism to run rampant on campus. Good for Columbia.
