(Free Beacon) Columbia University is posting security guards outside of Jewish studies courses a day after pro-Hamas students stormed an Israeli history class and targeted Jewish students with anti-Semitic flyers.
“We have mobilized the Public Safety team to prevent future incidents, including identifying and directing additional resources to classes at increased risk for disruption,” Columbia announced Wednesday. A security guard was already placed outside at least one class, “Zionist Thought,” which is offered through the Institute for Israel and Jewish Studies, according to a Jewish student group.
On Tuesday, the first day of the spring semester, four keffiyeh-clad student activists marched into an Israeli history class and filmed themselves as they passed out anti-Semitic propaganda to Jewish students. The flyers glorified Hamas, depicted the Star of David being crushed, and promised violence.
