Fox News
Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY), pressed Columbia University's president about pro-terrorism on campus in a congressional hearing.
"I'm talking about the faculty members who are supporting terror," Rep. Stefanik said while questioning Dr. Nemat "Minouche" Shafik, Columbia's president since July. Hannah Grossman is a Reporter at Fox News Digital.
One of the professors, Joseph Massad, called Oct. 7 terror attacks in Israel "awesome" in an opinion article the day after the attack. A petition with over 70K signatures calling for Massad's firing back in October was "ignored" by the university, according to critics.
