Combating Antisemitism: From Praise to Action

Columbia University's president, Minouche Shafik, and Barnard College's president, Laura Rosenbury, have praised the "persistence" of students accused of antisemitism amid the Israel-Hamas conflict. In response to doxing incidents and harassment targeting members of the community, the university is establishing a Doxing Resource Group to provide support and coordinate with other task forces on doxing and student safety. The announcement comes after trucks displaying the names and photos of Arab, Muslim, and Palestinian students were sent to Columbia's campuses by the nonprofit Accuracy in Media. The university has also retained experts in digital threat investigation and privacy scrubbing to assist affected community members.
