> Cornell University's Faculty Senate voted 75-50 to declare no confidence in the administration's ability to address what it calls a campus sexual-assault crisis. The vote followed criticism over the university's handling of a former student's lawsuit alleging she was drugged and raped at a fraternity house in October 2024. The seven former fraternity members named in the suit deny the allegations.
