Faculty at Cornell University introduced a resolution of no confidence on Monday, designed to target authorities they believe failed to punish students accused of gang rape at the institution nearly two years ago sufficiently.
The Cornell University Faculty Senate will review the resolution against the university administration and it will put it on its agenda when the body meets on Oct. 14. Around 40 senators out of roughly 75 voting members have expressed support for the resolution, professor Paul Ortiz, a Faculty Senate member, told CNN, with the development coming after thousands of students protested leadership’s handling of the case in demonstrations earlier Monday.
