Columbia Students Demand Ethical University Changes
Columbia University ProtestersTitle: 'The Awakening at Columbia'
In the fall of 2023, Columbia University became the epicenter of a protest movement that would shake the foundations of the Ivy League institution. What began as a small gathering of students concerned about the university’s financial ties to fossil fuel companies quickly snowballed into a full-blown occupation of the campus’s main lawn.
The spark was lit when a group of environmental activists, led by a fiery graduate student named Lena Torres, uncovered documents linking Columbia to an oil conglomerate accused of devastating Indigenous lands. Lena, a first-generation Latina student from the Bronx, had spent years fighting for climate justice, but this discovery pushed her to action.
'We can’t study at an institution that profits from destruction!' she declared at a rally outside Low Library. Within days, students from different activist groups—climate justice advocates, Palestinian solidarity organizers, and anti-war collectives—joined forces under the banner 'Columbia for Ethical Futures.'
The administration, led by President Dr. Jonathan Whitmore, initially dismissed the protests as a passing disturbance. But when the students erected tents on the lawn, refusing to leave until Columbia divested from fossil fuels and cut ties with militarized research projects, the situation escalated.
University officials called in the NYPD, leading to midnight arrests that were livestreamed across social media. The images of students—some in tears, others chanting defiantly—being dragged away went viral. Alumni, faculty, and even politicians began weighing in.
Then came the turning point. Professor Elijah Carter, a respected historian, stood before the protesters and announced his resignation from the Board of Trustees in solidarity. 'If Columbia will not listen to its students, then it has lost its way,' he declared. His act of defiance inspired more faculty to join the movement.
Facing mounting pressure, the administration finally agreed to negotiations. After weeks of tense meetings, Columbia announced it would fully divest from fossil fuels, establish an ethical investment committee with student representation, and create a scholarship fund for climate refugees.
The protesters disbanded, but their impact lingered. News outlets dubbed it 'The Columbia Awakening,' a moment when students proved that even the most powerful institutions could be held accountable.
And as Lena Torres stood on the steps of Low Library, watching the sun rise over a changed campus, she whispered to herself:
'This is just the beginning.'
The End.
