Columbia union president among nine expelled over Palestine activism.
More on Columbia University’s crackdown on student protesters.
The Student Workers of Columbia (SWC) union says its president Grant Miner is among the nine students expelled by the university.
In a statement, SWC said Miner was “expelled without evidence for participation in Palestine solidarity activism, which was in response to Columbia’s financial investment in US-backed Israeli genocide”.
SWC added that Miner’s expulsion “comes the day before we start bargaining” with the university’s administration over staff contracts.
It accused the university of escalating “retaliation against students, faculty and staff for pro-Palestine protest” in order to “appease the Trump administration”.
The White House withdrew some $400m in federal funding to Columbia this week, accusing it of failing to protect Jewish students during the campus protests last year.
