Cornell University is under renewed pressure over its disciplinary response to allegations that seven Chi Phi fraternity members sexually assaulted a student in October 2024. Records obtained by a leading news publication describe sanctions including expulsions, suspensions, a campus ban, no-contact orders and educational requirements.
The criminal investigation was reopened in September 2026 and is now led by New York Attorney General Letitia James. Students have demanded greater transparency and questioned whether Cornell's disciplinary response was adequate.
