You're comparing Columbia University to ITT Tech.And snobbery won’t save them from meeting the same fate as ITT Technical Institute if and when they lose accreditation for failing to adequately remedy antisemitism. That’s a pretty wild hill for Columbia to die on in the 21st century.
The question either gets an honest answer or, failing to do that, gives an honest answer.Anti-semitism has metastasized in the left so you’ll never get an answer to that question. See above.

Hmm…let’s see, who would know the Constitution better?Because the Constitution has nothing to do with what a private university like Columbia allows on its campus.

Because there are apparently stupid people who think the law doesn't apply to their favorites.
To trust a mcmahon on anything is the height of gullability.
Well, Mrs. World Wrestling Federation said so, so it must be true.
MAGAs are such bootlickers for people who claim to care about "freedom."
It's against the law to discriminate, that is, to deny the rights, privileges and protections of the Constitution, to groups identified as "protected classes" based on legally defined characteristics."Discrimination?"
How so?

From what I’ve observed, you don’t have a serious bone in your body so certainly not by you. Tell me more about Jewish space lasers.
Hysterical post comparing Columbia with ITT Tech
Do you expect to be taken seriously when you post shit like that?
Um, anyone who’s even taken an elementary civics course knows that the First Amendment is only binding on the government not on private institutions like Columbia.Hmm…let’s see, who would know the Constitution better?
You or Columbia?

You supported them coming for the Jews. Don’t complain if they come for you.
ITT tech make those?

(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.
The action isn't based on one person's word. It's based on a specific law, Title VI of the Federal Civil Rights act.I hate to be the one to break it to you, but Mrs. Professional Wrestling isn't Judge Dredd.
Her word is not "the law."
There have been some high profile defections as well reported on recently as well.It's anecdotal, sure - but from what I've been hearing, all the forms that capitulated have been shedding talent and clients left and right.
You supported them coming for the Jews. Don’t complain if they come for you.
I mean... as long as institutions take federal money, the federal government will have the power to take it away.
1. It is good that Columbia face serious consequences in the face of it's behavior. If it had been black students or Muslim students being treated this way, this would have happened long ago (actually it never would have really started, as Administrators would have landed on that with strict consequences immediately).
2. However, it does indeed set a precedent for this kind of power to be used by the next Democrat Administration. Expect schools who don't allow males to play in female sports (or something similar) to face similar accreditation threats in the future.
I’ve always had the wisdom to avoid the “cool” kids. They peaked in high school.All the cool kids not hanging out with you.

That's the law.
No, it's not "based on Title VI."
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.
