Lawsuit by Khymani James ("Be Grateful That I'm Not Just Going Out and Murdering Zionists") Against Columbia Dismissed

ReasonParty-alignedCenter17 hr. ago

Khymani James, a third-year undergraduate student at Columbia University, faced disciplinary action after making controversial social media posts supporting Palestine and expressing hostile views towards Zionists. During a virtual meeting with Columbia's Center for Student Success and Intervention (CSSI), James livestreamed the session without permission and made inflammatory remarks, including comparing Zionists to Nazis and stating 'the world is better without them.' Following this incident, CSSI informed James that they might have violated university policies related to unauthorized recordings and discriminatory speech. James filed a lawsuit against Columbia, but it was dismissed by a New York trial court judge. The court noted that James admitted Columbia suspended students involved in the encampment and failed to identify another similarly situated student who wasn't disciplined.
