The University of Columbia arrived at an agreement to settle the allegations with the Trump administration that it failed to stop antisementism in the campus, working on Wednesday to restore the federal research fund of the school, the university announced.
The University of Columbia said on Thursday that the Trump administration has been agreed to pay $ 200 million in three years, as well as in exchange for a return of $ $ 400 million in federal grants of $ 21 million the same Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and in exchange for $ 1.3 billion per year in a year in federal funding. The Trump administration specifically canceled the federal grant and the school $ 400 million in contracts, accusing the university of “Jewish students’ failed to work” due to frequent harassment.
“I believe these are enough settlements. As the acting president, with our board board, we had to see all the facts … With the possible disadvantage of top scientists, indefinitely possibilities for indefinitely, will endanger our position as a world-agronic research institute,” the executive president of the University of Columbia said.
“In addition, as I have discussed many opportunities with my community, we carefully discovered all the options open for us. We must have won short-term litigation, but not without deep long-term damage-not-the possible loss of federal funding of the future, the possibility of losing recognition, and the possible cancellation of the visa status of thousands of international students continued.”
As part of the deal, Colombia also promised to follow the commitments made in March to combat antisemiatizm and violence on campus, and promised to reject DEE policies in favor of laws of civil rights to consider the race in entry and work.
The school’s deal with the Trump administration disposals more than half a dozen open civil rights at the university and brings on an independent monitor that agrees by both the school and the federal government to report on the progress of the university every six months.
Shipman said that the university has not accepted violating laws of civil rights as part of the settlement, although he said the school “does not deny very serious and painful challenges that our organization has faced with antisemiamism.” Shipman said Colombia “controls its educational and operational decisions,” and the federal government “will not tell what we teach, who teach, or which students we accept.”
Shipman said, “The agreement is an important step after a continuous federal investigation and period of institutional uncertainty.” “Settlement was carefully designed to protect the values that define us and allow our necessary research partnership to be brought back to the track with the federal government.”
The resolution agreement for the Trump administration is an important victory, which rift the funding of Columbia and other elite universities to exclude DE and Antisemitism between other civil rights issues. Columbia is the first university to compromise with the administration on allegations of antisemiamitism. Harvard has sued the Trump administration on funding cuts, although the school is also in the conversation: “Hope the Colombia Basti will provide a template for future deals,” new York Times Informed
Shipman, who has been President since the end of March, said in an interview this week that he is engaged in intensive interaction with the administration and worked with the board of trustees, lawyers, and an academic leadership team to work for the university of the White House.
“Finally, we had to decide that there was a right decision for Colombia,” he said. “And I think we have taken this decision. We were not careless. In our view, it was important to slow down things and to deliberately deliberately to be intentionally, and it was really difficult to do.”
