+'''Congress''' is the legislative branch of the US government, located in [[Washington, DC]]. Columbia has had a long and varied relationship with the organ, which controls a lot of the federal funding that flows its way.
 For example, in [[1786]], Congress actually shut down during Columbia's first [[Commencement]] after the [[Revolutionary War]] in deference to the then mere college (it probably made a difference that the capital of the United States, and hence Congress itself, was then located in [[New York City]]). However, in [[2024]] pressure from Congress arguably led to [[Minouche Shafik]] cracking down on the [[Gaza Solidarity Encampment]].
