纽约州伊萨卡,10月5日电 - 康奈尔大学学生周一举行大规模集会,声援一名同学,该同学的轮奸指控引发全国轩然大波,并要求这所常春藤盟校采取更有力行动打击校园性暴力。

ITHACA, New York, Oct 5 - Cornell University students staged a mass rally on Monday voicing solidarity with a classmate whose gang-rape allegations have ignited a national uproar and demanding that the Ivy League school take firmer action against sexual violence on campus.

抗议者呼吁对康奈尔校方处理此事的方式进行外部调查,实行独立听证会,并对校园内所有性侵案件制定统一的最低制裁标准,同时加强校园警察处理性暴力和骚扰投诉的培训。

The protesters called for an external inquiry into how Cornell's administration has handled the matter, independent hearings and uniform minimum sanctions for all sexual assaults on campus, and better training for campus police in responding to complaints of sexual violence and harassment.

据化名"简·多伊"的涉嫌轮奸受害者称,大学未能对涉案兄弟会成员进行充分调查和惩处。

The alleged gang-rape victim, identified by the pseudonym Jane Doe, has said the university failed to adequately investigate and punish campus fraternity members who were involved.

部分示威者还要求康奈尔大学校长迈克尔·科特利科夫及其政府其他成员辞职,称他们的政策延续了抗议者所谓的校园"强奸文化"。

Some demonstrators also called for the resignation of Cornell President Michael Kotlikoff and other members of his administration, saying their policies have perpetuated what protesters called a "culture of rape" on campus.

根据上月提起的诉讼,简·多伊称自己于2024年10月在校园奇菲兄弟会分会成员的灌醉和下药后,在丧失意识状态下遭多人性侵。

In a lawsuit filed last month, Jane Doe said she was plied with drugs and alcohol and then sexually assaulted by several members of the campus chapter of the Chi Phi fraternity in October 2024 after she had become incapacitated.

事发时年仅20岁的多伊,在起诉书中列出七名奇菲兄弟会成员为被告,同时还起诉了该兄弟会分会、一家当地酒吧、她所属的女生联谊会以及大学。

Doe, who was 20 at the time, named seven Chi Phi members as defendants in the suit, along with the fraternity chapter, a local bar, her own sorority, and the university.

她在事发数周后向警方报案,引发校方内部调查和执法部门调查,但当地检察官拒绝对该案提起刑事指控。

She had reported the alleged assault to police several weeks after the fact, leading to an internal university investigation and a law enforcement probe, but the local prosecutor declined to bring criminal charges in the case.

康奈尔大学为其对初次报案的回应进行了辩护,已关闭奇菲兄弟会分会,并对涉案兄弟会成员实施了一系列纪律处分,包括开除学籍和其他制裁。

Cornell, which has defended its response to the original report, shut down the Chi Phi chapter and imposed a range of discipline on the fraternity members involved, including expulsions and other sanctions.

据《纽约时报》引用康奈尔文件报道,所有涉案男性均否认有任何不当行为,有人称性行为是自愿的,也有人否认参与其中。

The men all denied any wrongdoing, some saying the sexual activity was consensual and others disputing their participation, the New York Times has reported, citing Cornell documents.

起诉书批评该大学曾给予部分涉嫌施暴者通过撰写文章来减轻处罚的机会。周一,示威者要求康奈尔大学开除或撤销任何被认定为涉嫌轮奸案共犯学生的学位。“判刑入狱,而非写作题目”纽约州州长凯西·霍楚尔上周五任命州检察长莱蒂蒂亚·詹姆斯为特别检察官,接管一项新近重启的刑事调查,并表示她对当地执法部门最初处理该案的方式“深感不安”。

The lawsuit criticized the university for having offered some of the alleged perpetrators a chance to mitigate their penalties by writing essays. The demonstrators on Monday demanded that Cornell expel or revoke the degrees of any student found complicit in the alleged gang rape. 'PRISON SENTENCES, NOT TOPIC SENTENCES' New York Governor Kathy Hochul last Friday appointed the state's attorney general, Letitia James, as a special prosecutor to take over a newly reopened criminal investigation, saying she was "deeply disturbed" by how local authorities originally dealt with the case.

周一的示威活动喧闹但有序,数百名学生、教职员工支持者和社区活动人士——可能多达1000人或更多——游行穿过位于纽约州上州伊萨卡镇的校园。

Monday's boisterous but orderly demonstration included a march by several hundred students, faculty supporters and community activists — perhaps 1,000 or more — through the campus in the upstate New York town of Ithaca.

抗议者高呼“同一个斗争,同一场战斗”和“伸张正义,不得安宁”,挤满了校园中央的步行广场,并溢出至周边区域。许多人手举标语,上面写着“为简·多伊伸张正义”、“我们声援幸存者”和“判刑入狱,而非写作题目”。

The protesters, chanting "One struggle, one fight" and "No justice, no peace," filled the central pedestrian plaza on campus, and spilled over into adjacent spaces. Many carried signs with slogans such as "Justice for Jane Doe," "We Stand for Survivors" and "Prison Sentences, not Topic Sentences."

游行在康奈尔大学主行政楼前结束,该建筑于周一拂晓前被不明活动人士破坏,他们砸碎了前门的两块玻璃,并在入口处喷涂涂鸦,其中一条信息写着:“康奈尔庇护强奸犯。”

The march ended at Cornell's main administration building, which was defaced in Monday's predawn hours by unknown activists who smashed two glass panes of the front door and spray-painted graffiti on the entryway, including one message that read: "AT CORNELL RAPISTS ARE PROTECTED."

独立学生报纸《康奈尔每日太阳报》报道称,收到了活动人士的声明,声称他们的破坏行为是对涉嫌性侵以及“允许此事发生的全球权力体系”的抗议。此次集会在多伊及其律师表示自提起诉讼以来收到多起威胁的第二天举行,该诉讼引发了公众强烈愤慨,特别是在社交媒体上,话题标签“#IamJaneDoe”下,人们质疑为何执法部门在2024年拒绝追究刑事责任。

Independent student newspaper the Cornell Daily Sun reported receiving a statement from the activists saying their vandalism was an act of protest of the alleged assault and "global systems of power that allowed this to happen in the first place." The rally came a day after Doe and her lawyer said they had received multiple threats since filing the lawsuit, which has prompted a public outcry, particularly on social media under the banner "#IamJaneDoe," over why law enforcement declined to pursue charges in 2024.

这场骚动也引发了其他人的强烈反弹,他们质疑对Doe保持匿名是否公平,因为这剥夺了涉事人员公开面对控告者的机会。

The uproar also stirred a backlash by others who have questioned whether keeping Doe anonymous was fair because it denied those implicated in the matter the chance to publicly face their accuser.

周六,科特利科夫在一段视频讲话中回应了这场争议,承诺将审查兄弟会和姐妹会在校园中的角色,并表示:“成为团体一员永远不能减轻个人责任。” 路透社

Addressing the controversy on Saturday, Kotlikoff promised in a video message to examine the role of fraternities and sororities on campus, saying, "being part of a group can never diminish individual responsibility." REUTERS
