Columbia University has agreed to a $200 million settlement with the federal government in response to months of public outrage, internal chaos, and the pressure campaigns Accuracy in Media helped ignite.
This comes after Jewish students were harassed, protesters overran campus buildings, and the university failed -- again and again -- to protect its own students. Now they’re suspending students, revoking degrees, and rewriting policy.
Why? Because pressure works.
Accuracy in Media has been on the front lines at Columbia since October 2023 -- exposing the names, faces, and actions of radical antisemitic activists, rolling mobile billboards through campus, and flooding Columbia’s trustees with more than 49,870 messages demanding accountability. We even bought the domain names of the worst offenders so that when their future employer searches for them, the first thing that shows up is a permanent record of their actions.
Columbia tried to pretend this wasn’t happening for months. Now they’re scrambling to cover their tracks. They haven’t admitted the full extent of the harm done. A settlement isn’t justice, it’s leverage. And that leverage only matters if we keep the pressure on.
