Columbia University bans 70 students for Covid-19 travel violations

Rob Frehse and Sheena Jones:

Columbia University says it has temporarily banned at least 70 students for violating the New York City school’s Covid-19 travel policy.

The MBA students traveled to Turks and Caicos, according to Columbia University spokesman Christopher Cashman.

That violated the school’s Covid-19 health compact, a protocol which restricts any official or organized group travel until further notice, Cashman said.
