Columbia University alumni are rallying around a statement calling on the school to restore safety and enforce "zero-tolerance against antisemitism."
"Enough is enough. Antisemitism is never acceptable. Ever," it says, alleging how in the last week "students encircled and tried to intimidate a Jewish student in a ‘Zionist free zone’" and "the flag of the terrorist group Hamas flew" inside a Gaza solidarity encampment at its New York City campus. Greg Norman is a reporter at Fox News Digital.
"We insist Columbia immediately restore safety for all students without exception by enforcing zero-tolerance against antisemitism. Columbia must remove illegal encampments and take swift and strong disciplinary action against students engaged in hate speech, threats, and criminal conduct," it says. "Empty rhetoric is inadequate. Jewish students require more robust action to feel secure, and all students deserve a campus where activities core to the university’s mission proceed free of disruption."
