About 20 million was to settle, you know, suits with employees on campus since October 7th. And so I think all of that shows that they really didn't understand they needed reform. There can be no more mask protest. If students are wearing masks for health reasons or religious reasons, they must be prepared to show their student id. So Columbia's taken a lot of steps here and I'm pleased with these negotiations. Hopefully we have restored, I think we have the university to a place of learning, of open debate, of equal presentation of viewpoints. (04:07–04:17)
