They’re letting the inmates run the asylum and act surprised when the lunatics do absurd things? Who are the crazy ones here?
-
Colleges have gone down the toilet
-
It seems that Ivy League schools are the worst
-
so she is saying the faculty have no control over what the students do😂
-
The material is being handed out to students at orientation to be used as a guide in their education. Saying this is “not a product of the university” is ridiculous.
-
She’s playing “dumb”
-
It's not part of the school but the students handed out and we approved it
-
Just like UPenn and Harvard, this woman MUST GO!!!
-
This giggling really gets to you. "I do not know what my students do, I do not care what my students do. I am not responsible for anything"
Wanna bet she knew? -
O m g
I had no idea of the extent of the antisemitism .
This is extreme.
And the fact it is not punished immediately, is a form of encouragement -
You can rest assured had any Colombia students handed out orientation pamplets with any hint of anti Muslim or Black info the university would have banned it from the campus .
-
She should be fired immediately.
-
If it’s handed out by the school then the school has authorized it, regardless who prepared the document.
-
"Ummm...bc they don't know how to spell??"
But you accepted them into an Ivy League school 😭😭😭 -
The word folks is spelled FOLKS not Folx! It's ludicrous that the President of the University is not aware what is being handed out to the students!
-
She should be ashamed of herself and resign.
-
Don’t send your kids to Columbia. In fact, don’t send your kids to any Ivy League school. Let me be clear; the Ivy in Ivy league is dying. There are many many other schools that provide equivalent, education, are less expensive, and have people in charge who actually know what they’re doing and what’s going on in their university. If I were that president, I would be so embarrassed by my lack of knowledge.
-
Why is she testifying? She is clueless.
-
And all those student loans went into the pockets of people like this.
-
She certainly has that whole deflection, pass the buck protocol down pat. 😂😂😂
