Original: Cornell rarely expels students in sex assault cases | Exclusive

The report notes that a third of undergraduate women at the university say they have been sexually assaulted, yet Cornell averaged just one expulsion of an attacker per year. The findings are drawing attention to how elite universities discipline sexual misconduct.
Why now: The gap between the reported scale of assault and the rarity of expulsion is striking and raises questions about campus accountability.
