Carville rips Columbia over Trump settlement: ‘I’ve never seen such cowards in my life’

NEW YORK CITY, JUL 25 – Columbia will pay $200 million over three years to settle federal antisemitism and discrimination investigations, restoring $400 million in research funding and agreeing to significant reforms.

  • Columbia University agreed on Wednesday to pay more than $220 million to settle federal investigations into alleged antidiscrimination violations and restore federal funding.
  • The deal follows sustained federal scrutiny after accusations from the Trump administration about antisemitism on campus and other civil rights issues.
  • The agreement requires Columbia to fully comply with federal laws, appoint an independent monitor, limit race consideration in admissions, and reform its Middle East curriculum.
  • Acting president Claire Shipman described the settlement as a significant move following an extended time of federal investigation and organizational challenges, while President Trump referred to the deal as "historic."
  • Columbia is required to designate an administrator within a month to monitor adherence to the settlement, which enables the university to recover millions in federal funding and includes provisions for ongoing reporting.
