Democratic Rep. Josh Gottheimer of New Jersey has called on Columbia University's president, Minouche Shafik, to take more decisive action in response to the ongoing protests at the school. Gottheimer emphasized that while he believes Shafik should act, the decision on whether she should resign ultimately lies with the board of trustees.
Gottheimer stressed the importance of tangible actions over mere words, stating, 'Now it's time for action, not just words.' He highlighted the significance of this moment for university presidents nationwide, urging them to step up and prioritize the safety and well-being of all students.
