Columbia temporarily suspended Business School assistant professor Shai Davidai’s campus access, University spokesperson Millie Wert confirmed in a statement to Spectator on Tuesday.

Davidai publicized the University’s decision to restrict him from campus in a video posted to his Instagram account on Tuesday evening. In the video, he said “the University has decided to not allow me to be on campus anymore. My job. Why? Because of Oct. 7. Because I was not afraid to stand up to the hateful mob. And because I was not afraid to expose Mr. fucking Cas Holloway.”

Wert wrote that Davidai “repeatedly harassed and intimidated University employees in violation of University policy.”

Davidai said he was suspended in retaliation for posting multiple videos on X of his conversations with Chief Operating Officer Cas Holloway and Assistant Director of Public Safety Bobby Lau on Oct. 7 during Columbia University Apartheid Divest’s walkout.

“Because I posted those videos, and now everybody knows Cas Holloway’s name and Bobby Lau’s name, they retaliate. They don’t like being exposed,” Davidai said.
