Cornell frat house rape investigation sparks campus conversation

🐿️ The Squirrel's Take
Universities must pivot from asking women to lecture sons about consent to imposing real accountability on fraternities and enforcing zero-tolerance policies.

This case could intensify scrutiny of fraternity culture nationwide and pressure colleges to overhaul sexual assault prevention and reporting protocols.

A woman alleges she was drugged and raped at a Cornell University fraternity house two years ago. The incident is under investigation, drawing shock from students and prompting commentary on parental responsibility.
