Don’t hide behind the 1st Amendment. You need to be clear about what you support people advocating so say the words.
There is nothing funnier than watching white American goyim try to play the "anti-Semitism" card.
I'm thinking the relevant accreditation agency may have a say, too.
Say the words. Is this the “free speech” you’re talking about? Or is it the bullshit lily livered kumbaya statement Columbia administrators issued after a Jewish student was bludgeoned in the night for being a Jew on campus by one of the rabid anti-semites?This is nothing but a lie, a pretext in order to attack Universities because Republicans see them as columns of liberalism.
Anti-Semitism has NOTHING to do with any of this.
It's about attacking Free Speech and forcing universities to adhere to what Trump personally wants.
The attacker was arrested and charged. Columbia should be punished for her nutjob actions?Say the words. Is this the “free speech” you’re talking about?

Balderdash.Columbia U. is not being singled out. They cannot claim victimhood in this matter.
Columbia is being held to the same standards as every other institution of higher learning. If a university fails to meet accreditation standards due to their own fault by ignoring violations of federal antidiscrimination laws, specifically Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 due to their failure to protest Jewish students from hate and harassment, then they deserve their comeuppance.
The good news for you is that the speech allowed or disallowed by a private university is not a first amendment issue. The bad news for you is that you’ve crawled into bed with rabid anti-semites for naught.I don't "hide" behind the 1st A. I proudly stand with it!
The Constitution is not a cafeteria plan. You either stand with, like I do, or you don't.
Balderdash.

(CNBC) Education Department says Columbia University fails to meet accreditation standards

I'm not eager to add a third thread in one day, into the busy Breaking News Forum. But, I felt this news item was too important to pass over.
It appears the Trump Administration has found Columbia University does not meet accreditation standards, and has informed the relevant accreditation agency (Middle States Commission on Higher Education) of the violation.
This is huge. Accreditation is required to receive Pell Grants & Student Loans, and even determines whether degrees and transfer credits will be accepted by other academic institutions, professional societies, and in Industry.
I'm blown-away that the future of an academic institution is at the hands a government administrative determination.
You made the assertions, they're yours to prove. You know this.Prove it.
Every time MAGA says something like "That's not being done" or "Trump isn't going to implement P2025", you know that's what's being done. Every time they lie about something, they expose themselves. MAGA thinks college and universities are hot beds of ultra-liberalism and they want to destroy them. That's why they're going after Universities they don't like, why they're attacking grants and funding, etc. And if they say they aren't doing it for those reasons, you know that's why they are doing it. I think it's utter insanity that MAGAs still somehow think we'll buy their lies.“We’re not fascists”
Yes.
Yes you are.
You are using this only as a pretext for the government to take over higher education in order to bend it ideologically to the governments will.
That is what’s happening here, in broad daylight, you love it, you support it, but you choose to lie about it.
Columbia did nothing and for that they should be punished. The only thing that surprised me about what transpired at Columbia and Harvard is that their staff and administrators from the top down were nakedly anti-Semitic.The attacker was arrested and charged. Columbia should be punished for her nutjob actions?

Yes, well, it’s too late for words. I want to see expulsions and terminations.Good to see Columbia U. admits wrongdoing that led to their loss of accreditation. Long overdue.
Columbia has acknowledged the concerns and stated it is working with MSCHE, the abbreviation for Middle States Commission on Higher Education, to address them, emphasizing its commitment to combating antisemitism.
HEAR HEAR!!!!!I think the anti-Trump movement has to stick together, 100% unified, against every single thing Trump does.
Trump's picking us off, one by one, and we're allowing it.
Yes, well, it’s too late for words. I want to see expulsions and terminations.
Read the article and understand exactly why this action was taken. Now you go ahead and explain why Columbia's illegal action is "balderdash".You made the assertions, they're yours to prove. You know this.
Did they? Whom did they expel and whom did they terminate?In any case, Columbia complied.
