Trump administration demands widespread changes to Columbia University discipline policies

The Trump administration is demanding Columbia University make widespread changes to its disciplinary policies and admissions to reverse the cancellation of about $400 million in federal funds.

The New York City-based Ivy League university has faced intense scrutiny from the Trump administration over its handling of pro-Palestinian student protests in 2024. Last week, the federal government said it was pulling $400 million in grants and contracts from the university — citing the school's failure to combat antisemitism.
 
Where Trump pulls funds I think it would be best if that money is lost to the receiver forever. If they correct their behavior to the administration's satisfaction, then re-establish some level of funding if funding makes sense for whatever reason. If some money isn't lost forever, there is less incentive to make honest long lasting changes.
