Cornell University has canceled Friday classes due to “extraordinary stress” amid a junior being federally charged with making antisemitic threats. Instead, Friday will serve as a “community day,” Provost Michael Kotlikoff and Christine Lovely, the vice president and chief human resources officer, said in an email to students and staff, school paper the Cornell Sun reported.
He also said he would behead Jewish babies and threatened to “bring an assault rifle to campus and shoot all you” Jewish people, prosecutors said, attributing the words to Dai. School officials said that the threats specifically named the school’s Center for Jewish Living. The federal complaint said he admitted to making the threats. He appeared in federal court Wednesday but did not enter a plea.
