John Hopkins University professor Dipali Mukhopadhyay has requested to revoke her affiliation with Columbia University's Saltzman Institute of War and Peace Studies over the handling of student protests against Gaza violence. Arrests continue across US campuses as police dismantle pro-Palestinian protest camps, including at UCLA. In an email to Columbia's president, Mukhopadhyay cited the administration's "incompetence and inhumanity" in responding to peaceful protests. Expressing solidarity with students advocating for academic freedom, she declared her inability to justify her association with the institution under the current leadership.
