In USA, Columbia University has agreed to pay 221 million dollars to settle claims from the Trump administration that it failed to adequately address anti-Semitism on campus. The settlement will unfreeze most of the 400 million dollars in federal grants previously withheld. The New York-based university will also regain access to billions dollars in current and future funding. The University said the agreement affirms reforms introduced in March, including enhanced campus safety and revised disciplinary procedures. The deal also requires Columbia to uphold merit-based admissions and end programs that allegedly promoted race-based quotas or diversity targets.
