"Rising Antisemitism: Cornell University Takes Action to Ensure Campus Safety"

Cornell University has heightened security at its Jewish center on campus and alerted the FBI after antisemitic posts targeting its students appeared online. The university is taking the matter seriously and will not tolerate antisemitism. New York Governor Kathy Hochul visited the campus and emphasized that threats, hatred, and antisemitism will not be tolerated. The posts, which included slurs and threats against Jewish people, have since been deleted but were captured by the Cornell Daily Sun. The university police department has increased patrols and arranged additional security for Jewish students and organizations. The Biden administration has also announced measures to combat antisemitism and hate speech on campuses.
