The resolution comes after a Faculty Senate meeting where angry members confronted Cornell University President Michael Kotlikoff about the university’s handling of the allegations. In an audio recording, Kotlikoffs defended his leadership and urged faculty to have confidence in his leadership, pointing to an independent investigation into the university and potential reforms. The criminal investigation by Cornell’d police department stalled after the district attorney declined to pursue charges. The faculty has lost confidence in the administration’re ability to combat sexual assault on campus. The vote will be largely symbolic but could send a message to the university trustees.
