Official statement
Where this statement fits
Did Cornell adequately discipline the students named in the Cornell 7 lawsuit?
A former Cornell student alleges that seven Chi Phi members sexually assaulted her in October 2024 and that Cornell mishandled the aftermath. The Cornell Daily Sun's editorial board and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez criticized the university's response. Cornell says its Title IX process resulted in expulsions and suspensions, and that essays were not the sole consequence for any student found responsible. AP subsequently reported individual sanctions and housing concerns.
