During a recent hearing, Rep. Virginia Foxx, the Republican chairwoman of the House Education and Workforce Committee, expressed strong criticism towards Columbia University, accusing the institution of being a hotbed of antisemitism and failing to protect its students.
Foxx highlighted the surge of antisemitic incidents on college campuses, particularly at prestigious universities, following the October 7 Hamas attacks. She specifically pointed out Columbia University as one of the worst offenders, citing a recent incident where an Israeli student was reportedly assaulted with a stick just days after the attacks.
