Jewish high schoolers in New York City were warned against applying to Cornell University over the school's reported failure to protect Jewish students from repeated instances of antisemitism, Fox News Digital has learned.

"As a national network of alumni dedicated to countering antisemitism on campus, we felt an obligation to warn prospective Jewish students and their families about Cornell’s failure to protect our community," Avi Gordon, executive director of Alums for Campus Fairness, said in a statement to Fox News Digital.

Alums for Campus Fairness sent brochures to all high schools in the New York City metro area this month, arguing "Cornell refuses to enforce the student code of conduct, fostering a hostile climate that endangers Jewish students."

"Considering Cornell? Cornell is not a safe place for Jewish students," the group’s brochure added. The brochures were styled to look like promotional materials sent by the university to prospective students, according to Alums for Campus Fairness.

Cornell is located in Ithaca, New York, roughly 200 miles from the Big Apple.

Ithaca has Cornell and Ithaca College surrounded by farmland and the Finger Lakes. Not much else going on there. It's about as safe of a college town as you can find.

I gotta say. There ain’t one group of people across the world, that can all get and act on the same page, than Jewish people can.

I swear this was a Richard Benjamin routine in the 70s he did on an SNL monologue, about college pamphlets which should have depicted him being chased by Nazis through the quad.

Well I understand you didn’t get it in your bended knee, head bowed, programming session…. But:

You could use the basic of basic searches.

Cornell University cancels classes Friday amid ‘extraordinary stress’ on campus after violent antisemitic threats led to the arrest of a student

Cornell University has canceled classes Friday to acknowledge the “extraordinary stress” its campus has been under as one of its students is accused of making violent antisemitic threats against Jewish people at the college, where unease over the Israel-Hamas war has been escalating for weeks.

A junior at the university, 21-year-old Patrick Dai, has been arrested and federally charged in connection with a series of online posts over the weekend which threatened to kill and harm Cornell’s Jewish students, New York prosecutors say.

Cornell is one of many US colleges and universities that have become fraught with tension as students — and occasionally professors and high-profile donors — voice impassioned stances on the war raging between Israel and the Palestinian terrorist group Hamas.




Just use a little… juuuuust a little independent thought. It will help you so much in the long run. I promise.

Neighbor’s kid was jumped during class at Cornell by some Palestinian trash several months ago. It was the first day of class coming back from Halloween and the teacher was taking attendance and when the professor called her name (last name is a jewelry name) she was booed. Right before class ended a couple of them started beating the shite out of her in class for no reason.

She dropped out of Cornel that day. She is now at the Univ of Florida and loving it but carries deep emotional scars from the incident.

One of my former Jewish law partners graduated from Cornell and never mentioned any problem, but that was years ago.

Cornell has a Jewish president, UPenn is the only ivy without a Jewish president, and it has the largest number of Jewish students of any of the Ivies

You don’t get to run the place and simultaneously call yourself a victim. Doesn’t work that way.

Says who? You listened to the leadership of Jackson, MS lately? New Orleans? Chicago? Pretty much any minority ran city in the United States?

Or is there a separate group of people that doesn’t get to do that? While others do?
