Billionaire Robert Craft pulls his support for Columbia University due to the ‘virulent hate’ being spread on campus against Jewish students. The owner of the New England Patriots, who is worth $11.1 billion, released a statement saying Columbia is “no longer an institution I recognize.” “I am deeply saddened at the virulent hate that continues to grow on campus and throughout our country. I am no longer confident that Columbia can protect its students and staff and I am not comfortable supporting the university until corrective action is taken. It is my hope that Columbia and its leadership will stand up to this hate by ending these protests immediately and will work to earn back the respect and trust of many of us who have lost faith in the institution.” He also said that the Kraft Center at Columbia can be used by Jewish students as a ‘source of security and safety.” “It is my hope that in this difficult time, the Kraft Center at Columbia will serve as a source of security and safety for all Jewish students and faculty on campus who want to gather peacefully to practice their religions, to be together and to be welcomed.” Source: NY Post
