Former Cornell student Jane Doe sends letter to faculty saying she felt unsupported by President Kotlikoff's response to her rape allegation
Jane Doe, a former Cornell student who alleges she was gang-raped at a Chi Phi fraternity house in October 2024, sent a letter dated October 14, 2026 to Cornell faculty leaders saying she felt "unsupported and disbelieved" by President Michael Kotlikoff's reported question about why she waited to report. Cornell disputes her second-hand account, saying Kotlikoff's question was directed at bystanders who did not use the anonymous tip line. The letter comes ahead of a faculty senate no-confidence vote scheduled for October 28.
