Looks like Trump is using antisemitism and terrorism as levers to take over Columbia University

I think there are like 60 other colleges and universities on Trumplandia's current hit list


The Trump administration brushed aside decades of precedent when it ordered Columbia University to oust the leadership of an academic department, a demand seen as a direct attack on academic freedom and a warning of what’s to come for other colleges facing federal scrutiny.


Federal officials told the university it must immediately place its Middle Eastern, South Asian, and African Studies Department under “academic receivership for a minimum of five years.” The demand was among several described as conditions for receiving federal funding, including $400 million already pulled (https://apnews.com/article/columbia-university-protests-antisemitism-palestine-israel-9c209ce040e4b60d2702b40b9c2fb321) over allegations of antisemitism.

gutting health sciences research



Experts predict the face of university research could be permanently changed, affecting work on treatments for cancer, Alzheimer's, and diabetes, among other conditions, along with studies on the underpinnings of disease.


"There are no other revenue sources that could cover those costs," said Jonathan Teyan, CEO of the Associated Medical Schools of New York. The National Institutes of Health "is the single-largest funder of science in the nation and you can't just sort of shift costs from other areas to cover this."

State of play: The University of Massachusetts Chan Medical School rescinded provisional offers to dozens of biomedical Ph.D. students this month, "to ensure that our current students' progress is not disrupted" amid funding uncertainties, a spokesperson told Axios.


Johns Hopkins University last week moved to eliminate (https://hub.jhu.edu/2025/03/14/johns-hopkins-usaid-funding-cuts-global-health/) more than 2,200 staff positions, including 247 in the U.S., following the termination of more than $800 million in USAID funding, primarily to its school of public health and a global health affiliate.
The termination of more than 400 NIH grants to Columbia University over its handling of Gaza protests will directly impact Alzheimer's and cancer research, Notus reported (https://www.notus.org/health-science/columbia-university-grant-cuts). It also likely tanked a landmark 30-year-diabetes prevention study, Stat reported (https://www.statnews.com/2025/03/17/trump-cuts-columbia-university-nih-cancels-diabetes-prevention-program-study/).
Elsewhere, Stanford announced a hiring freeze (https://news.stanford.edu/stories/2025/02/staff-hiring?ref=stanfordreview.org) tied to NIH cuts, Baylor's College of Medicine said it will scale back expansion plans (https://www.houstonchronicle.com/news/houston-texas/health/article/baylor-medical-school-nih-funding-cuts-20194299.php?utm_source=chatgpt.com) and trim its incoming graduate school class while Emory's public health school warned of "potentially radical adjustments (https://www.gpb.org/news/2025/03/06/emory-university-plans-curb-spending-staffing-fed-research-cuts-loom)."

It’s another corrupt quid pro quo like the one behind Trump’s 'perfect phone call' to Zelenskyy. Here, Columbia only gets federal funding if it agrees to violate the constitutional rights of both faculty and students on Trump's behalf.

[Winehole23]

Calabresi is a former FedSoc president, Eugene Volokh is nobody's lib

Trumplandia is using Title VI -- illegally --to chill speech

But it's naive for law profs to ask Trump to follow the law


...the First Amendment of course doesn’t protect antisemitic violence, true threats of violence, or certain kinds of speech that may properly be labeled “harassment.” Title VI rightly requires universities to protect their students and other community members from such behavior. But the lines between legally unprotected harassment on the one hand and protected speech on the other are notoriously difficult to draw and are often fact-specific. In part because of that, any sanctions imposed on universities for Title VI violations must follow that statute’s well-established procedural rules, which help make clear what speech is sanctionable and what speech is constitutionally protected.

Yet the administration’s March 7 cancellation of $400 million in federal funding to Columbia University did not adhere to such procedural safeguards. Neither did its March 13 ultimatum stipulating that Columbia make numerous changes to its academic policies—including the demand that, within one week, it “provide a full plan” to place an entire “department under academic receivership for a minimum of five years”—as “a precondition for formal negotiations regarding Columbia University’s continued financial relationship with the United States government.”

Under Title VI, the government may not cut off funds until it has



conducted a program-by-program evaluation of the alleged violations;
provided recipients with notice and “an opportunity for hearing”;
limited any funding cutoff “to the particular program, or part thereof, in which…noncompliance has been…found”; and
submitted a report explaining its actions to the relevant committees in Congress at least thirty days before any funds can be stopped.



These requirements aim to ensure that any withdrawal of funds is based on genuine misbehavior on the university’s part—on illegal toleration of discriminatory conduct, not just on allowance of First Amendment–protected expression. The requirements aim to make clear to recipients of federal funds just what behavior can form the basis for sanctions. And each of the requirements aims to make sure that the sanction fits the offense.

Yet here the sanction was imposed without any agency or court finding that Columbia violated Title VI in its response to antisemitic harassment or discrimination. Even to the extent that some protesters’ behavior amounted to illegal harassment of Jewish students, no agency and no court has concluded that Columbia illegally failed to reasonably respond to such discriminatory behavior—much less failed to act at a level justifying withdrawal of nearly half a billion dollars in funds. The government’s action therefore risks deterring and suppressing constitutionally protected speech—not just illegal discriminatory conduct.

And this danger extends beyond universities. The safeguards and limits that the administration has ignored are designed to protect all recipients of federal funding from unwarranted or excessive sanctions. They protect recipients of federal funding across the ideological spectrum, including K-12 schools, hospitals, nursing homes, and business and agricultural initiatives. The administration’s failure to honor the Title VI safeguards creates a dangerous precedent for every recipient of federal financial assistance.

Lol 10th grade drop out ranting in an education thread.

11th grade you fucking retard who's been corrected numerous times now and also throws out the fact I went on to college and got a bs associates degree.

What's your excuse for never seeing the signs your ex hated your guts, was sleeping around, and left your sorry ass? Guess your schooling didn't teach you to be more observant.

[koriwhat]

BlaKKKe I can't wait until you commit suicide. Do it already bro!

You and your butt buddy CumDumpster should make a pact and do the world a favor already.

Lmao WH is so concerned about all those high priced commie indoctrination stations. I wonder why...they're not

not even close

you're deluded

[Winehole23]

if Columbia University is really a commie indoctrination center, why is it caving to Trumplandia?

they're not the only one either

[Winehole23]

Columbia sicced NYPD on their own students, surveilled and punished them afterwards, even let ICE into the building to kidnap them.

Then they agreed to go into receivership afterwards.

Does that sound like a commie indoctrination center?

:lol

:lol

Cause and effect... What caused them to finally grow a spine and clean up the mess on their campus over the past 8-10 yrs now? What was it WH? And yes, they are a commie indoctrination station but just like all commies, capitalism is in yalls blood regardless of the screeching yall do against it.

Better question would be, with so much in their coffers already, why the need for Federal Aid? Oh, I know why...

It is a puzzler. Them and these other entities that are surrendering and agreeing to abide Trump amazes me. I don't trust it. They'll hide it now...in knowledge that 4 years goes by in a blink and then they can bring it back into the open. Nobody, NOBODY in America likes to have anybody tell them what to do/not to do on any level...husband/wife...employer/employee...gov't/citizen...on & on. We're spoiled that way.

they're cowards focused on institutional survival, while the values they're striving for are being burned down

The [long view]..."SOB, he won again."

But NOW he's has a time limit attached and guaranteed and "then we'll be shut of him forevermore. Play ball, hide out, put everything away in the sub-basement and lay low like the RINO's do."

incipient brain drain


More than 1,200 scientists who responded to a Nature poll — three-quarters of the total respondents — are considering leaving the United States following the disruptions prompted by Trump. Europe and Canada were among the top choices for relocation.

The trend was particularly pronounced among early-career researchers. Of the 690 postgraduate researchers who responded, 548 were considering leaving; 255 of 340 PhD students said the same.


Trump’s administration has slashed research funding and halted broad swathes of federally funded science, under a government-wide cost-cutting initiative led by billionaire Elon Musk (https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-025-00525-1). Tens of thousands of federal employees, including many scientists, have been fired and rehired following a court order, with threats of more mass firings to come (https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-025-00660-9). Immigration crackdowns and battles over academic freedom have left researchers reeling (https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-025-00849-y) as uncertainty and disruption permeate all aspects of the US research enterprise.
