Left narrative

Encouraging dissent in universities fosters real learning by challenging ideas. Recent events at Columbia University, threatening protesters, highlight the need for open debate. Universities should protect free expression, embrace diverse views, and prioritize education over silencing dissent.

Right narrative

Calls for Shafik's swift removal stem from her failure to address campus antisemitism. Criticisms include inadequate campus management, lack of Jewish student safety assurance, and failure to combat antisemitism, showcasing leadership deficiencies and accountability lapses.
