Cornell University is experiencing a "dark cloud" and "dismal" mood due to an ongoing investigation into an alleged gang rape that occurred two years ago. Students and faculty have voiced anger and concern over the university's handling of the situation, with many calling for drastic changes. The accuser, identified as Jane Doe, filed a civil lawsuit in September, claiming the university failed to protect her or adequately punish those involved, dubbed the Cornell Seven.
