Ketamine is at the center of the Cornell 7 case: What to know about the drug

What the coverage shows

The Washington Post and The Independent both frame the story as an explainer about ketamine itself, with each noting its approved anesthetic use and its illicit abuse. Vox instead foregrounds the legal question at the center of the Cornell Seven case, while its extract alone mentions a former Cornell student’s allegation and the absence of criminal charges. National Review is the outlier, using the case as a springboard for a broader critique of sexual liberation rather than the drug.
