US Cancels $400 Million to Columbia University: Northwestern, Portland State and More May Be Next

The US government has cancelled £314 million ($400 million) in federal funding to Columbia University, citing inaction over persistent antisemitic harassment on campus. The decision, announced by the Department of Justice (DOJ), the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the Department of Education (ED), and the General Services Administration (GSA), is part of a broader crackdown on universities failing to combat antisemitism. Columbia is now under federal investigation alongside four other institutions, raising speculation about which universities could face similar financial penalties next, according to The Jerusalem Post.
