Federal agents, disguised as investigators, detained a Columbia University student in a residence hall early Thursday morning. The universitys acting president confirmed the incident, noting the agents used misrepresentations to gain access. The students name and details on the detention have not been released, but the university is offering legal support. This incident echoes recent cases of federal agents posing as utility workers and comes almost a year after agents detained a Columbia graduate student in his university housing. The university has implemented new measures to protect students from immigration enforcement, including requiring law enforcement to show a judicial warrant or subpoena for non-public areas.
