NEW YORK (AP) — Columbia University has reached a deal with the Trump administration to pay more than $220 million to the federal government to restore federal research money that was canceled in the name of combating antisemitism on campus, the university announced Wednesday.

Columbia University said on Wednesday it will pay over $200 million to the U.S. government in a settlement with President Donald Trump's administration to resolve federal probes and have most of its suspended federal funding restored.

Two janitors at Columbia University who allege pro-Palestinian protesters trapped them inside a building recently reached a settlement with the institution in connection to its larger agreement with the Trump administration.

President Donald Trump secured a $221M settlement with Columbia University in the wake of pro-Palestinian protests and civil rights violations, according to the White House.

The Education Department is launching an investigation into Duke University and Duke Law Journal, the department announced in a news release on Monday, citing reporting that alleges the university was violating the Civil Rights Act.
