Palestinian group sues Columbia University

A lawsuit has been filed in New York accusing Columbia University of discrimination against the Palestinian community among students and staff since late 2023. The documents indicate that the university failed to protect members of this community from harassment and targeted them through disciplinary hearings that are considered unfair and biased. The university previously denied the discrimination claims and refused to comment on the current lawsuit. This comes amid widespread protests following the escalation of the Israeli attack on Gaza in October 2023, where protesters called for an end to U.S. support for Israel and the withdrawal of university investments from supporting companies. In May 2025, the university suspended over 65 students for protesting against Israeli aggression, which led to tensions between the university and pro-Palestinian movements—especially after federal funding was cut in 2024—and after some groups rejected Palestinian rights and considered opposition to Israeli aggression as anti-Semitism.
