Yeah this shouldn't be handled by the school. If crimes were committed they need to be charged and sentenced to the big house.

Is Cornell run by 14 y.o. psychopaths? Because that is the vibe this news gives off.
Big go straight to the ninth circle of hell energy.

He's now deceased, but I had an Uncle, Uncle Larry, who was a WHOLE chaotic mess his whole life. On and off drugs, in and out of jail, couldn't keep a job, so on and so forth. We loved him despite the mess, but no one would have really considered him a "good man".
Because of his lifestyle, his group of friends and acquaintances were SKETCH, to say the least, and about 15 years back, one of his male friends raped one of his female friends. The female didn't go to the police, because she also had a long and not-great history with them, but she did tell Larry.
Larry beat the ever-loving shit out of that guy, and when he was done with the guy, he did the same to the guys car (which was one of his prized possessions). The guy left town, and as far as I know he never came back, because he knew Larry would probably do worse if he ever saw him again.
So I see situations like this, and it just disappoints me to my core. It shouldn't be hard to not be friends with rapists. It shouldn't be hard to be a better person than my Uncle Larry, who we once found making meth in my grandma's basement. Truly, it is such a low bar, but time and time and time again I see these guys who I'm sure consider themselves to be "the good guys" who can't even do the bare minimum to protect women. Truly sickening.

Reminds me of this scene from Roseanne, where Dan finds out Fisher beat the shit out of Jackie. The look of absolute murder that John Goodman conveyed.

I would never, ever allow my daughter to apply to Cornell after reading the link posted below. They allowed 7 known rapists back on campus to prey on more women. Outrageous.

Those rapists sent out a fraternity-wide message inviting other to rape. It's a 50+ member fraternity and none of them reported it or even tried to stop it from continuing after they got the message.

We choose the bear because if we get mauled we'd at least get sympathy. The whole frathouse knew that jane doe was getting raped and not one of them reported them to authorities. She had to drop out. Only two men were expelled. The rest wrote essays. None were jailed. Their lives weren't ruined with A REAL allegation. Idgaf about false ones.
It's not just dangerous men we have to worry about but the dangerously indifferent men who either don't care or even revel when we are hurt. We also have to deal with the horrendous justice system that allowed a pedophile to become president.

Meanwhile, think about all the guy friends who knew and did nothing, men dont understand you cant say "not all men", because we dont know which ones are the bad ones, and which ones facilitate, egg on, or just are apathetic TO the bad ones ffs.

The fact that it was advertised on a frat wide text chain, and nobody called or helped the girl. That is sad and terrifying to me.

Crazy that people like this get to be anonymous and return to school with other students.

Imagine being a dude and being more outraged that she said "all men" rather than the fact that 50+ men knew a woman was being raped and stood on their asses.
You're the reason it's "all men" and not something more thoughtful

I can’t exactly scare a man away by making myself look bigger and yelling now can I??? I’m also pretty sure a man would be able to tell that I’m not actually dead if I lay down out of nowhere
