RESIGN! Columbia President Shipman Privately Said School Needed To Add Muslim Board Member and Fire Jewish One After the October 7th Massacre

Columbia President Claire Shipman privately suggested that a Jewish trustee be removed over her pro-Israel advocacy after the October 7th attacks.

Enough. Claire Shipman must resign. If not, she should be fired. Taxpayer dollars should be suspended.

Columbia University “geniuses” Claire Shipman and Wanda Greene had a problem with their Jewish colleague:

Claire: We have to be aware of Shoshanna.
Wanda: You think she’s a mole? I can’t stand her.
Claire: I do. We need an Arab onboard to replace her.

Taxpayers fund this. pic.twitter.com/P5yk0RfzGE

Columbia faculty have now accused a Jewish trustee of “leaking” President Claire Shipman’s texts—despite the fact that Columbia itself gave them to Congress, which released them publicly.

Columbia President Shipman Privately Said School Needed To Add an ‘Arab’ Board Member—and Remove a Jewish One

‘We need to get somebody from the middle east or who is Arab on our board,’ wrote Shipman. ‘Quickly I think.’

Our Aaron Sibarium is out with an exclusive story on private text messages Columbia University president Claire Shipman sent last year while serving as co-chair of the Ivy League school’s board of trustees. In those messages, Shipman suggested that a Jewish trustee known for her pro-Israel advocacy should be removed. She also said Columbia needed to add an “Arab” to the board “quickly.” Here’s a preview:

Before she became the acting president of Columbia University, Claire Shipman argued that the school needed to get an “Arab on our board” and suggested that a Jewish trustee should be removed over her pro-Israel advocacy, according to text messages obtained by the House Committee on Education and Workforce.

“We need to get somebody from the middle east [sic] or who is Arab on our board,” Shipman, then the co-chair of Columbia’s board of trustees, wrote in a message on January 17, 2024. “Quickly I think. Somehow.”

A week later, Shipman told a colleague that Shoshana Shendelman, one of the board’s most outspoken critics of campus anti-Semitism, had been “extraordinarily unhelpful,” adding, “I just don’t think she should be on the board.”

More…..

I am thoroughly embarrassed.
A high school classmate & former reporter acting Pres of Columbia, Claire Shipman went off the rails….

Claire is in the news 4 being a complete anti semite, & what I see as a disgraced leader.
