Columbia University Settles Probe, Regains Funding | JQJO

Columbia University will pay $221 million to settle federal investigations into antisemitism and employment practices. The settlement includes a $200 million payment over three years to resolve antisemitism allegations and $21 million to the EEOC. This agreement reinstates the majority of the university's $400 million in federal funding, which was withheld following accusations of failing to address antisemitism. The university maintains its autonomy over academic decisions.
