In an effort to regain the $400 million in federal funding that it lost earlier this year, Columbia University announced that it will: require its Office of Institutional Equity to use the IHRA definition of antisemitism, appoint a Title VI coordinator, mandate antisemitism training for students, staff, and faculty, and refuse to recognize or meet with the Columbia University Apartheid Divest coalition, which is banned by Instagram due to promotion of violent material. Brian Cohen, executive director of Columbia Barnard Hillel, said these steps are welcome as their implementation shows an acknowledgement of the antisemitism spike on campus.
