Columbia Struck a Deal to Save Research Funding. How Do Its Researchers Feel About That? Faculty and others expressed a mixture of relief and frustration over the deal, under which the university will pay over $200 million to have most of its research funding restored.

I said what I said: "Professors are considering leaving Columbia because of the settlement, said Jacoby and Dixon-RomΓ‘n. 'It’s very demoralizing to teach in a university that’s, from my perspective, acceding to authoritarian demands,' Jacoby said."
