There is growing tension at Columbia University amid the pro-Palestinian protests on the New York campus.
House Speaker Mike Johnson on Wednesday called for the resignation of school President Minouche Shafik, while pro-Palestinian student protesters are demanding Columbia cut all financial ties with Israel.
"It's pretty disheartening to see all this on campus. I will say I think a lot of people are misguided," said Michael D'Agostino, a senior student at the university.
While most protests have been non-violent, some Jewish students are expressing concern for their safety.
"The antisemitic comments and activity is running rampant," said Jessica Schwalb, a Jewish student at Columbia.
The university recently shifted to hybrid classes due to safety concerns, allowing students to take classes and final exams online.
"It's making harder to go to classes and everything. And things are switching to going remote," said Rony Anyin, a sophomore student.
