Cornell University’s Faculty Senate has voted “no confidence” in the school’s leadership over its handling of sexual assault allegations on campus. The move Friday follows a former student’s lawsuit saying she was gang raped at a fraternity house in 2024. The vote followed weeks of debate among professors over whether Cornell President Michael Kotlikoff or other administrators handled the allegations properly and whether they’ve done enough to combat campus sexual misconduct. The vote of no confidence is largely symbolic, but supporters of the resolution said they hope it will pressure university trustees to urgently address longstanding institutional failures.
