Columbia University president faces scrutiny over antisemitism crisis

Columbia University's president, Nemat Shafik, faced intense scrutiny over antisemitism on campus. Pro-Palestinian student demonstrators occupied the lawn, adding to the crisis. Shafik set up a command center near the White House to address the situation. The ensuing 24 hours of deliberations led to a campus crisis over free speech and safety, reminiscent of 1968, impacting campuses nationwide during a challenging academic year.
