I want to really commend and call out Columbia University.

They had a pretty horrific pattern and practice of anti-Semitic and discriminatory conduct there, as well as DEI issues.

And they came to the table with the United States.

They didn't sue us.

They negotiated in good faith.

We reached a landmark settlement.

That included $200 million of penalties to the United States paid over three years, but also importantly, the largest anti-Semitism class action lawsuit settlement that the EEOC was ever able to obtain in history.

I think it was $26 million for victims there, including professors, faculty, even janitors who had been subjected to mob interference there and just plain old discrimination.

And we also have had settlements.

I personally negotiated a Columbia one with Linda McMahon.

as well as with Cornell.

I reached a deal with Cornell, another excellent deal, Northwestern.

We also have deals with Penn involving specifically Title IX issues in girls' sports, women's sports, I should say, and Brown and others.

And so I will also say that there have been other institutions where they can't... University of Virginia, my alma mater, although now that Abigail Spanberger is the governor, she seems very determined to...

derail that and other reforms that have been done in Virginia.

Many of these institutions, I don't want to paint with too broad a brush, particularly the elite public institutions.

They've been extremely forthcoming and willing to come to the table with us.

And sometimes they hire private lawyers who help them go through their websites and their policies and practices and reform of them.

And then they come to my conference room.

and they show us their homework.
