Cornell University Jewish community threatened in online posts; police, FBI investigate

Cornell University police and the FBI are investigating a series of threats made against the New York school’s Jewish community. The threats were posted to a website not affiliated with the university and targeted '104 West,' where the Center of Jewish Living is located on campus. One of the threats called for people to follow a Jewish person home and 'slit their throats,' adding, 'Rats need to be eliminated from Cornell.

The Cornell Center for Jewish Living sent an email to the community about the threats of violence made on GreekRank. Like the Hillel Center and Pollack, the CJL said in its email that the police and FBI are investigating the threats. Our students are always our top priority, and we are doing and will do everything we can to ensure their safety. We will continue to notify you with updates as we receive them,' the email read.
