Columbia University in the U.S. announced a series of new measures to combat antisemitism on campus, including adopting the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) definition, collaborating with the Anti-Defamation League to train students and staff, and appointing supervisors to oversee discrimination and harassment complaints. Additionally, the university will not recognize employee or student organizations that support BDS. The move comes alongside advanced talks between Columbia and the Trump administration to restore $400 million in federal funding, which was canceled in March on the grounds that the university had not done enough to prevent harassment of Jewish students.
