Trump cuts $400 million in US grants to Columbia, prompting major layoffs and research halt
Posted
Columbia University is laying off nearly 180 staff after US President Donald Trump canceled $400 million in federal funding due to the university’s response to Gaza-related campus protests. The layoffs affect 20% of grant-supported employees and disrupt major research projects. Columbia complied with several federal demands in hopes of restoring funds, but uncertainty remains. Faculty members and researchers warn the damage may take years to repair, according to reporting by the Associated Press.
