Allen (R-Ga.) used his time differently, briefly changing the hearing’s focus by asking Shafik if she was familiar with Genesis 12:3. “Probably not as well as you are, Congressman,” Shafik said. “Do you want Columbia University to be cursed by God?” Allen asked, prompting laughs from Allen, Shafik, and the committee’s audience before adopting a more serious tone, recommending that Columbia offer courses on the Bible.
