A call from Columbia University's chapter of the American Association of University Professors for a vote of no confidence in university President Minouche Shafik and other officials for calling in the New York Police Department to clear out an occupied building at the school was an "extraordinary request" but not enough, Morton Klein, the president of the Zionist Organization of America, said on Newsmax Sunday.
The chapter said the decision was "made without consultation with the University Senate, in violation of established procedures, by recourse to so-called emergency powers." Meanwhile, Columbia and universities that have allowed anti-Israel protests to continue violate the Civil Rights Act, which requires universities to have a safe environment for all students, including Jews, said Klein.
