Columbia Faculty Walk Out in Solidarity with Arrested Protesters

The university has since suspended in-person classes and implemented remote learning.

Columbia President Nemat Minouche Shafik expressed sadness and condemned antisemitic language, but students argue their protests are peaceful and inclusive.
