Well put. I've been so sick to my stomach with this. And knowing that her and Chanel Miller from Stanford are not the only ones this happens to really makes it hard. As someone else told me, this is how the epstein class continues to keep happening.
Thank you Dana for your essay. "Insufficient evidence." This seems to be a commonly used excuse for not following through with criminal charges in S/A & domestic violence complaints. I've read those two words often in public announcements via city & county alert systems. As long as there are people excusing away this disgusting & criminal behavior & not following through with proper investigations & charges, we will never stop this. The Epstein case is an example of why young men feel they are exempt from criminal charges & prison.
An anonymous leaker has reportedly revealed the essay topic:
“Explain how your Cornell experience will guide and prove advantageous to your future career choice as: 1) Associate Justice, Supreme Court of the United States; or 2) President of the United States.”
Central Park 5 he takes out an AD. And calls for the execution. He demands the they get the death penalty. Cornell crickets. And the Central Park 5 were innocent. Stanford student convicted of rape. He gets a slap on the wrist. Basically a speeding ticket. What privilege. Great piece by you. Wonder what Don will say about this one?
But now Cornell officials will investigate to discover if they had AI generate the essays for them. That would violate the university code and trigger harsh repercussions.
As an academic I’d just like to point out that treating writing as a punishment in a supposed institution of higher learning is stupid. The importance of this post is condemnation of enabling and rewarding rape. That is the important part. But as an aside there’s my point. Writing shouid be treated as an exciting opportunity to put into words creative thoughts and/or putting into words one’s own take on original research. Cornell is pathetic. Alums should sue the administration for devaluing a degree earned there.
“But if we report this fine young man for the mistake of drugging his off-campus housemates and skinning them alive to sew into a ‘wedding gown’ before eating their faces, his life will be ruined!”

Strange topic??? Wonder if it’s real???

And 50 co conspirators in the frat house and the administration

This is an excellent (and horrifying) point!
I don't know about anyone else but I would love to see what those men wrote in their essays!

Castrate rapists. Control of women’s bodies is not a one way street.
It happens at every college. Always has.
