Indian PhD student Ranjani Srinivasan, accused of "supporting Hamas," says she feels betrayed after Columbia University failed to defend her when the U.S. revoked her visa. Srinivasan, who spent five years at Columbia in Urban Planning, left for Canada on March 11, fearing arrest. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem labeled her a "terrorist sympathizer." Srinivasan still hopes Columbia will reinstate her enrollment, saying, "All the requirements for my PhD are complete." A viral video showed her leaving New York's LaGuardia Airport. She is currently staying with friends and family in Canada. (PC: X/@Sec_Noem)
