康奈尔大学校长周六称,2024年一所兄弟会住宅内一名学生被指控遭团伙强奸一事“令人深感不安”,并表示此事将在未来多年持续影响这所大学。同时,面对外界对学校处理该案件方式的日益愤怒,他承诺将提高透明度。
Cornell’s president called the alleged gang rape of a student at a fraternity house in 2024 “deeply disturbing” Saturday, said it would weigh on the university for years to come and pledged greater transparency amid mounting outrage over the school’s handling of the case.
在一段面向康奈尔社区、时长八分钟的视频讲话中,迈克尔·科特利科夫称过去一周是该校历史上最艰难的一周之一,并承认围绕指控后续调查的诸多问题令人担忧。
In an eight-minute video message to the Cornell community, Michael Kotlikoff described the past week as one of the most difficult in the university’s history and acknowledged troubling questions about the investigations that followed the allegations.
“当我想到她所经历的一切时,我的心都碎了,”科特利科夫说,“这件事引发了关于性侵犯、非人化,以及派对文化、酒精和药物使用等方面令人心痛且令人不安的问题。”科特利科夫重申了他支持对康奈尔大学处理该案件方式开展独立审查的承诺,该审查由纽约州州长凯西·霍丘尔呼吁发起。他表示,学校董事会将于下周公布相关细节。他还表示支持霍丘尔将刑事调查移交州总检察长办公室的决定。

“My heart aches when I think of what she experienced,” Kotlikoff said. “It raises heartbreaking and troubling issues about sexual assault, dehumanization and aspects of party culture, alcohol and drug use.”Kotlikoff reaffirmed his commitment to supporting an independent review of Cornell’s handling of the case called for by New York Gov. Kathy Hochul and said the school’s Board of Trustees would announce details next week. He also expressed support for Hochul’s decision to turn the criminal investigation over to the state attorney general.

While citing “real legal and privacy limits” on what the university can disclose, he pledged greater transparency and more opportunities for students, parents and others to engage with university leaders.

虽然他承认学校在信息披露方面存在“法律和隐私方面的限制”,但他承诺将提高透明度,并为学生、家长等提供更多与学校领导层沟通的机会。他还表示科尼尔大学支持推动纽约州修改性侵犯法律的立法进程。
The case has renewed scrutiny of a state law that makes it difficult to prosecute sexual assaults involving people who voluntarily consume alcohol or drugs, even if they became too intoxicated to consent. Tompkins County District Attorney Matthew Van Houten cited the law in defending his initial decision not to pursue charges, saying the woman’s original statement to police described voluntary drug use and sexual activity.
这起事件再次引发了人们对该州法律的关注——该法律使得那些自愿摄入酒精或毒品的人难以被起诉(即使他们因醉酒而无法做出同意行为的决定)。汤普金斯县地方检察官马修·范·豪滕(Matthew Van Houten)在为自己最初决定不起诉该女性的理由辩护时引用了这项法律,称该女性最初向警方提供的陈述中提到了她自愿使用毒品以及发生性行为的情况。
Critics have long sought to close what they call the “voluntary intoxication loophole,” which distinguishes between people incapacitated by drugs administered without their consent and those who voluntarily became intoxicated.
长期以来,批评者们一直呼吁修改这项法律,以消除所谓的“自愿醉酒漏洞”(即该法律对那些在不知情的情况下被下药而失去行为能力的人与那些自愿醉酒的人之间的区别)。霍丘尔(Hochul)承诺将推动对该法律的修改。
Hochul has pledged to push for changes to the law.
科特利科夫还呼吁“认真审视兄弟会和姐妹会在校园生活中的作用”,并表示康奈尔大学将邀请学生、校友及其他相关人员共同探讨如何在保持这些学生组织积极意义的同时,加强其责任机制和透明度。
Kotlikoff also called for a “serious look at the role of fraternities and sororities in campus life,” saying Cornell would engage students, alumni and others in examining how to preserve the benefits of Greek life while strengthening accountability and transparency.
他说:“加入某个团体绝不能削弱个人对自己行为的责任感,也不能削弱我们对待他人的态度,或削弱我们在他人面临危险时站出来提供帮助的意愿。”
“Being part of a group can never diminish individual responsibility for our own actions, for how we treat others or for speaking up when someone may be at risk,” he said.
