Columbia University has initiated an investigation into Professor Shai Davidai following his outspoken criticism of the institution's handling of antisemitism and its impact on Jewish and Israeli students, faculty, and staff at both Columbia and Barnard College. Davidai, who has been vocal about the university's alleged failure to address antisemitism and protect Jewish civil rights, described the investigation as a retaliatory act aimed at silencing pro-Israel voices. The controversy has sparked widespread support for Davidai, with various individuals and organizations condemning Columbia's actions as shameful and inexcusable. Accusations have also been made against some professors for purportedly advocating a pro-Palestinian bias, further intensifying the debate over the university's stance on these issues.
