Columbia University says its main campus classes will be hybrid until the semester ends as protests continue. cnn.com/2024/04/22/bus…

Head of Columbia/Barnard Kraft Center for Jewish Life emails students “It is unacceptable that I need to send this email in 2024” but: NYPD will be at the Kraft Center through Passover & Public Safety will provide escorts to/from Kraft Center for anyone attending the Seder

🚨President Biden weighs in on the situation at Columbia:

'Even in recent days, we’ve seen harassment and calls for violence against Jews. This blatant Antisemitism is reprehensible and dangerous – and it has absolutely no place on college campuses, or anywhere in our country.'

I used to tell my Jewish friends - even weeks ago - that Columbia (where I’ve served as a professor and a dean for 15 years) was still a safe place for their kids to live and study.

I’ve come to doubt that. So does a campus rabbi, Ellie Buechler.
