Removing Orphan[edit]
Apropos of the orphan status, I added Cojab to the notable alumni section of Hillel Yeshiva and List of NYU Alumni. -- M.boli (talk) 12:06, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
Podcast past-tense[edit]
Edits to the podcast description in this wiki-page:
- I rewrote the podcast to past-tense. It has been silent for 5 months since late November, 2023. Have not found any reference saying the podcast is ended, but it is moribund.
- Also added the Spotify description of the podcast with archived shows as a reference.
- A description of a Hillel event Cojab attended did not seem related to the podcast, so I removed it as a reference.
- A Telemundo video (in Spanish) was also attached as a reference to the podcast, I cannot verify whether or not it is relevant. I'll remove it here, since the podcast is amply referenced without this.
The two deleted references are here in case anybody finds them useful for future additions to the article.

That is all. -- M.boli (talk) 18:54, 3 May 2024 (UTC)
Why is this an article?[edit]
It doesn’t look like she’s a public figure of any repute, and hasn’t done anything notable—why is this page up? 108.6.129.89 (talk) 00:53, 19 May 2024 (UTC)
Title VI Complaint[edit]
The current article repeatedly references a “lawsuit” between Cojab and NYU. However, no such lawsuit ever existed and these statements are an incorrect interpretation of a title VI complaint.
A title VI complaint was filed on behalf of Cojab by her lawyers with the US Dept of Ed OCR. This complaint was investigated by the OCR. Prior to completing the investigation, NYU and the OCR reached a resolution agreement. This resolution agreement ends the OCR investigation. This is distinct from a lawsuit settlement which ends a suit, not an investigation.

The article as currently written gives readers an incorrect understanding of both the agreement between NYU and OCR, and of Cojab’s role in that agreement. 73.142.187.43 (talk) 02:31, 19 May 2024 (UTC)
Done. Corrected "lawsuit" to "formal complaint" in the lede. In the body of the article it was correctly described as a complaint to the Ed. Dept. Office for Civil Rights. Corrected the body to say that the settlement was between NYU and OCR, not with Cojab. I think this confusion happened because some of the references (sloppily) refer to a "lawsuit". I added the settlement agreement and the accompanying determination transmittal letter as references. (Using URLs from the Ed. Dept. web site.) -- M.boli (talk) 04:43, 19 May 2024 (UTC)
