Minouche Shafik's resignation comes amidst growing pressures from Congress following student protests related to the Israel-Hamas conflict, marking a significant shift in leadership dynamics.
Her resignation seems surprising given that she had previously weathered criticisms and maintained support from Columbia’s board, suggesting perhaps deeper issues at play or strategic decision-making.
In her resignation letter, Shafik alluded to the need for Columbia to navigate upcoming challenges, indicating her recognition of turbulent times ahead for the institution.
Shafik is set to transition to an international development role in the UK, raising questions about her timing and the circumstances surrounding her departure.
