What happened

Cornell’s Student Assembly led a public hearing on campus safety and sexual violence, BBC News reports. The New York Times reports that students described assaults, criticized administrators, and called for improved consent training.

Latest development

BBC News identifies the Student Assembly as the body leading the hearing and characterizes its subject as campus safety and sexual violence.

Why it matters

The hearing has placed student accounts of assault and demands for consent training into a Student Assembly-led public forum; neither BBC News nor The New York Times reports an administrative commitment or policy decision.

Established
