Columbia Antisemitism Panel

edit

I've checked this article for information on the recent placement of three administrators on leave over antisemitic text messages during an antisemitism panel (New York Times). Given that placing deans on leave for conduct is rather serious, I think this and other articles relevant to Columbia University's responses to the encampments on their campus.

The incident is unrelated to the 2024 Columbia University pro-Palestinian campus occupations. It may be appropriate for other wiki articles. Burrobert (talk) 12:47, 23 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
maybe part of some aftermath section? User:Sawerchessread (talk) 16:13, 23 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
Afaict, the discussion at which these incidents occurred was not triggered by the campus occupations. There appears to be no connection. Burrobert (talk) 12:43, 24 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
As a student and employee at Columbia University, the panel at which these incidents occurred was 100% because of the campus occupations. As is every "dialogue across difference" session, as is Title VI upcoming antisemitism training. It's all related and to think otherwise would be naive. 69.127.106.9 (talk) 02:40, 23 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi! Please remove the following sentence, as it is a misparaphrasing: "Deputy Editor Noah Bernstein of the Columbia Daily Spectator said that outside media coverage was generally slanted against the protesters." The quote was given in response to a question about "what is happening on campus." It was not given in specific reference to pro-Palestinian protests, as its placement on the "2024 Columbia University pro-Palestinian campus occupations" Wikipedia page suggests, or pro-Israel protests, for that matter. Thanks for your help! User17903 (talk) 13:29, 16 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

@User17903 reading the source, I don't see the problem with the statement. The article opens with More than 100 protestors were arrested in an April 18 police sweep of the “Gaza Solidarity Encampment” on the Columbia University and the entire article is talking about these specific protests, so it seems clear that he is referring to them as such. Note how he adds [...] more intense tilt on the negative elements of the demonstrations. – Isochrone (talk) 13:17, 29 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Empty threat of expulsion

edit

This article currently says, "The administration threatened to expel students who participated in the hall takeover."

This needs to be updated with the fact that this was an empty threat.
