Did Fidel Castro visit Columbia university?
Castro did not attend Harvard. Castro did have the knowledge to go to such a university as he has a law degree from the University of Havana and practiced law prior to the Cuban Revolution. He was a respected lawyer who became disenchanted with politics in Cuba thus becoming a revolutionary. Castro was not anti-US from the start and did not join the Communist Party until 1962, three years after his taking control of Cuba.
Did the US help put fidel Castro into power?
No, just the opposite. The US tried to prevent Castro from defeating Batista, because Batista was friendly toward the US and Castro was a Communist. The US never wanted Castro to take over and this can be seen by the later "Bay of Pigs" invasion that the US sponsored but failed to back up. There are accounts that the US through the CIA planned some elaborate schemes to kill Castro after he took over.
