Hundreds of students, faculty supporters, and activists staged an anti-rape rally at Cornell University to demand stronger action against sexual violence and an independent inquiry into the administration's handling of an alleged 2024 gang rape.

The protests were held in support of an alleged gang-rape victim using the pseudonym Jane Doe, who stated that the university failed to adequately investigate and punish the campus fraternity members involved. In addition to demanding a thorough review of the current case, protesters called for new guidelines to govern how future sexual assault allegations are handled on campus.
