Columbia University Israel Hamas Protest

Columbia University President Minouche Shafik resigned on Wednesday, nearly four months after the Ivy League university's handling of campus protests over Israel's war in Gaza was criticized by pro-Israel and pro-Palestinian sides alike.

Student protests against the Israeli military assault on Gaza following the unprecedented October 7 attack by Hamas on Israel have spread to several countries.

Columbia University on Tuesday threatened academic expulsion of students who took over a campus building, and New York City's mayor declared "this must end now," heightening nearly two weeks of tension.

Student demonstrators at Columbia University, the epicenter of pro-Palestinian protests that have erupted at US colleges, said Monday they would not budge until the school met their demands, defying an ultimatum to disperse or face suspension.

A cause celebre is ringing out across Harvard Yard, Columbia's South Lawn, Yale's Beinecke Plaza and UC Berkeley's Sproul Plaza: Disclose and divest.

A prestigious US university said Friday it suspended two student groups that organized protests on the Israel-Hamas war that "included threatening rhetoric and intimidation."

A group of Columbia University students walked out of a class taught by former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in protest at the Ivy League college's alleged role in the "shaming" of pro-Palestine demonstrators.

Hedge fund billionaire Leon Cooperman has vowed to stop donating to Columbia University after students at the Ivy League school held protests critical of Israel during its ongoing war with Hamas operatives.

At Columbia University on Thursday, two groups of hundreds of students tensely faced each other in dueling pro-Israel and pro-Palestinian demonstrations, while university officials blocked public access to the New York City campus as a safety measure
