World3 sources3 countries🔦 Under-reported36m ago
Cornell University has suspended all fraternity parties and social events for the remainder of the academic year following public outcry over allegations of a gang rape. The incident, which allegedly occurred in 2024 at an all-male club, came to light through a graphic lawsuit filed against the Ivy League institution last month.
In response to the allegations and subsequent protests, the university has taken disciplinary action by halting fraternity social gatherings. Additionally, Cornell has appointed former US Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates to lead a comprehensive, independent review evaluating how the administration handled the reported sexual assault.
