Cornell University faculty senators plan to vote on whether they trust the central administration to handle sexual assault on campus, including an alleged gang rape.

Labor history professor and faculty senator Paul Ortiz said the senate is expected to take up the measure on October 14. He said the aim is to force broader change, that students have reported feeling unsafe for years, and that women need to feel safe.

New York’s governor appointed a special prosecutor after saying she had lost faith in the local district attorney’s handling of the case.
