Cornell Case Revives Anger About Handling of Campus Sexual Assault Cases

A lawsuit alleging rape at Cornell has led to an outpouring of women sharing stories about sexual violence on college campuses.

What the coverage shows

The Washington Post and The Independent both frame the story around ketamine itself, using explainers on what the drug is and noting its approved medical use alongside illicit abuse. Vox instead spotlights a “loophole” and foregrounds the alleged assault and the question of why there were no criminal charges, while its extract is tied to a podcast conversation. National Review is the outlier, turning the case into a broader critique of sexual liberation rather than focusing on ketamine.
