Ivy League fraternity suspended, vandalized after alleged drug-fueled attack

The individual went to police to report the incident on Nov. 8, according to police.

Neither Cornell nor Chi Phi immediately responded to inquiries from Fox News Digital, though police confirmed in the Nov. 8 crime alert that a fraternity where the incident took place on Edgemoor Lane in Ithaca had been suspended "effective immediately."

"The problem runs deep at Cornell. It’s deeper than any one frat, deeper than any generation of students and certainly deeper than can be solved with any one action or suspension," the board wrote. "It’s the result of misogynistic, hierarchical organizations that are themselves rotten to the core. Increasingly, it’s becoming clear that the only way out of the frat problem at Cornell is a complete, permanent ban, replacing frats with democratic, inclusive spaces that don’t commit unspeakable crimes seemingly every semester."
