Cornell cancels classes after student is charged with threatening Jewish people on campus
Cornell University has canceled classes on Friday after a student was charged with making online antisemitic threats against Jewish people on campus. Cornell junior Patrick Dai, 21, has been charged with posting threats to kill or injure another using interstate communications after authorities say he made threatening comments on an online Greek Life forum over the weekend. The statements prompted officials to send police to guard a Jewish center and kosher dining hall as unnerved students feared for their safety.
