Columbia University Suspends Pro-Israel Professor Shai Davidai Over Harassment Claims
Columbia University has temporarily barred pro-Israel professor Shai Davidai from campus following allegations of harassment and intimidation towards fellow employees. The suspension comes after a protest on October 7, where Davidai reportedly confronted campus officials in a confrontational manner. The decision has sparked mixed reactions, with social media users expressing both support and criticism of the action taken against the outspoken lecturer. This incident is part of a larger discourse at the university regarding free speech and the tensions surrounding pro-Israel and pro-Palestine sentiments on campus.
