On the *same day* the Cornell Seven drugged and raped Jane Doe, Cornell banned four students (including the President of Cornell JVP) from campus for three years for nonviolent, pro-Palestine protests. The same Cornell officials let the rapists off with apology essays.

At Cornell, one person— Christina Liang — handles every disciplinary case, including the Cornell Seven’s and the suspensions of over 40 protestors. Liang wrote in 2025 that “2024 was one of the most challenging years of my career…and it helped me learn that caring less is okay.”

Fans of the Sun’s great reporting work on this should read their Editorial Board’s piece today on the incident — excellent analysis of how Kotlikoff’s distortions of events and immediate, public disparagement of the students he hits undermines trust in his admin. www.cornellsun.com/article/2026...

The sequence of events here is wild: - Cornell’s president hits two students with his car - He releases a statement saying students were banging on his car and shouting, doesn’t mention hitting anyone - Video is released and disproves this - He releases security footage disproving his own statement

The president of Cornell backed his car into a student and a recent grad after a campus debate on Israel-Palestine. Then he lied about what happened in an email claiming he'd been the victim of harassment. Then, magnificently, Cornell's student newspaper found a video of the incident

Michael Kotlikoff hit two students with his car and drove off without comment, then released a statement effectively calling the students liars engaged in harassment, and has yet to contact these students or apologize despite publishing video footage that clearly shows him hitting them. Insane.

You are up to date.
