Description
Cornell University has announced a ban on fraternity parties for the rest of the academic year. This comes after a lawsuit was filed by a woman who alleges she was drugged and sexually assaulted by 7 members of a fraternity in 2024. Sociologist Nicole Bedera says schools don’t do enough to protect students from sexual assault, so why not just ban Greek life entirely?
