A hearing will be held on Tuesday for detained Columbia graduate student Mahmoud Khalil and seven other students who are attempting to block the university from sharing private disciplinary records with a GOP-led House committee.

The U.S. government has alleged that Mahmoud Khalil withheld that he worked for a United Nations Palestinian relief agency in his visa application.

Federal prosecutors quietly filed more charges against Mahmoud Khalil, in an attempt to seemingly circumvent the first amendment debate.
