Cornell Suspends Fraternity Parties; Faculty Plan a No-Confidence Vote

PBS NewsHour reports that the fallout from sexual assault allegations at Cornell University is moving on two tracks. Faculty members plan to introduce a resolution of no confidence in how leadership handled an alleged gang rape at a fraternity. The university has suspended fraternity parties through the academic year and committed to a thorough review of fraternity life.

The two responses aim at different targets — one at the administration's handling of the complaint, the other at fraternity social life as a whole.
