1,200 sexual assault cases were filed at Cornell from 2018 to 2024. Most of those found responsible received minor sanctions that allowed them to remain on campus, such as probation or training. Only 7 ended in expulsion or dismissal.

@amydiehl@mstdn.social The problem looks to be far wider than just Cornell and has more than a little to do with the actions of the two Trump regimes. "Soon after Trump took office in 2017, the Department of Education rescinded the Obama-era rules, citing concerns about mistreatment of accused men. In 2020, it published new regulations that made it harder for schools to find students at fault and narrowed the scope of conduct to which schools must respond. "

@amydiehl@mstdn.social that is horrible. Why are they even allowed to operate still. That's a systemic problem obviously.
