Cornell University has canceled the performance of R&B singer Kehlani at its end-of-semester concert following outcry from Jewish students. The singer has made antisemitic and anti-Israel remarks in the past. Cornell President Michael Kotlikoff initially said it was too late to secure another performer, but later announced the cancellation in an email to the Cornell community. The controversy comes as Cornell is facing the potential loss of $1 billion in federal funding from the Trump administration over its handling of campus antisemitism.
