A student at Columbia University was detained Thursday morning by federal immigration officers.

Columbia University President Claire Shipman said that “federal agents made misrepresentations to gain entry to the building to search for a ‘missing person.’” The school’s campus has been closed to outsiders since 2024.

The president did not name the student, but it has been confirmed to be Ellie Aghayeva, an undergraduate neuroscience student who was expected to graduate this year. She was taken from her dorm room at the school’s New York City campus at 6:30 am.

    You might be confusing me with someone else.

    I don’t know. Still conflicted. Not really of course, but it makes it very annoying.

    This must be where you think you said it was a joke. And

    So she earned it I guess?

    this must be where you think you weren’t implying she had it coming.

    But maybe I’m confused. I thought you were here in good faith and trying to understand the reaction you were getting and that’s the only reason I commented. I’m happy to get back to smiling at pictures of cats. Ta.

      I guess?

      Typically used as unsure, or not really, at the end of a sentence. At least in English.

      Cat pictures sound good.
