All 7 Chi Phi members are named as defendants in a civil lawsuit alleging they drugged a Cornell student with ketamine and sexually assaulted her for HOURS in 2024. The suit says a message advertising “free p***y” was sent to the frat group chat while she was incapacitated.
And "men" showed up to take him up on his offer.
And Cornell’s response? The lawsuit alleges some were given the opportunity to MITIGATE THEIR CONDUCT BY WRITING ESSAYS.
She left Cornell. 5 of them were ALLOWED TO CONTINUE THEIR EDUCATION AT CORNELL.
Remember their names and faces.
Cornell University supports the decision of the Tompkins County District Attorney to provide an opportunity for the victim’s story in the 2024 Chi Phi fraternity sexual assault case to be heard by a criminal grand jury.

Artists in Gaza have painted a mural honoring the rapper Macklemore after he was removed from Ed Sheeran’s U.S. tour in response to remarks he made supporting Palestinians.
Painted on a large slab of concrete among the ruins of Gaza City, the mural shows Macklemore wrapped in a Palestinian flag with his fist raised and the message, “Thank you for using your voice for Palestine.”
An official with UNICEF, the UN child agency, said the attention generated by Macklemore and his controversial removal from the tour could bring more support to Gaza, where nearly all residents rely on aid for food, water, medical care and shelter.
In 2001, American firefighter Gary Box vanished without a trace during the 9/11 attacks; his remains have never been found.
His parents spent nine long years searching for any sign of him. Finally, in 2009, his mother discovered a photograph at once heartbreaking and a source of relief in the National 9/11 Museum’s photo archives and on the memorial's official website; the firefighter captured in the image was indeed him.
The photo was taken on September 11, 2001, by Danish businessman Erik Thorsen. While stuck in traffic at the Brooklyn Battery Tunnel, he looked through his windshield and captured the image of Gary rushing toward the Twin Towers. He later uploaded the photo to the National 9/11 Museum’s online archive, making this long delayed "reunion" possible. #USA911 #USFirefighter
