THE RECORD. THE RESPONSE. THE RIGHT TO BE HEARD.

ABOUT US · INDEPENDENT MEDIA

Every university.
A shared right to be heard.

We are an independent, anonymous collective helping people report experiences at their universities and making institutional responses easier to examine. Prevention, support and fair accountability are our mission. Community help makes it possible.

Our mission and commitmentsUpdated
WHY WE EXIST

Being safe should never depend on being silent.

A safer way to speak. A response that can be examined.

Our goal is to reduce barriers to reporting and help people be heard without surrendering control of their story. Serious claims should receive care, a fair investigation and an accountable response.

We want to prevent institutions from concealing, minimizing or dismissing sensitive reports to protect their reputation. We document responses, investigate contradictions and expose concealment where evidence establishes it. The history in our archive shows why scrutiny matters; each new claim still needs its own review.

Private review and public sharing are separate choices. Reports are restricted to authorized reviewers, contact details stay out of publications, and you can check progress or withdraw using your private receipt. We cannot guarantee complete technical anonymity or protection from retaliation.

People deserve to study, work, form relationships and take part in their communities without fear of sexual violence or retaliation. When harm is reported, they deserve to be heard with care, to understand their options and to see institutions answer serious questions.

Our mission belongs to people at every university, not to one campus, one case or one movement. Students, alumni, staff, researchers and others connected to university life can share experiences from any country or decade. Sexual violence, harassment, discrimination, bullying, hazing, retaliation, unsafe conditions and mishandled complaints all deserve careful attention. Other university experiences are welcome too.

Being heard should not depend on your institution’s prestige, your ability to pay, how recently something happened or whether a case made headlines. Cornell is the featured public-record dossier; it does not define the limits of who can report here. We want people who have been dismissed or left uncertain to find clear choices, useful support and a record that institutions cannot simply ignore.

Our goal is radical, lasting change: preventing future harm, supporting people affected and pursuing accountability through accurate reporting and fair processes. It could happen to anyone; every victim deserves support. We seek to expose concealment where the evidence establishes it, ask difficult questions where answers are missing, and document meaningful institutional action when it occurs.

01

Prevent the next harm.

Keep attention on consent, accessible support, protection from retaliation and how institutions respond to warning signs. Follow promised reforms and their published results, so an announcement does not become the end of the story.

02

Help people find a way forward.

Make reliable support information easier to find and provide space for carefully reviewed, de-identified reader accounts. Each person decides whether to share. Nobody owes us a story or public participation to deserve care.

03

Keep accountability in view.

Preserve what was reported, who had a documented responsibility, what action followed and what remains unresolved. We support lawful accountability and due process. Courts and appropriate authorities determine legal responsibility.

YOUR SUPPORT MATTERS

Not everyone can give money.
Everyone can help the mission.

A story can reveal a question that was never asked. A well-sourced correction can make the record more accurate. Sharing responsible reporting can help someone find a way to be heard. Financial support, arranged through private email follow-up, can help with qualified legal support and the costs of keeping this work available.

You do not need to donate to be heard. Support never buys a publication or a moderation decision. This site is currently private: a copied link does not grant access.

HUMAN REVIEW · INDEPENDENT RECORD

People decide.
Evidence stays in view.

Our archive does not depend on Meta’s platforms, engagement targets or automated feed rules. We will not remove responsibly sourced reporting merely because it is uncomfortable, unpopular or critical of a powerful institution.

No AI model decides which reader posts are approved, edited or removed here. Community publication requires a human member of the collective to review consent, context, privacy and attribution, then explicitly approve the edited text. Technical checks protect the service; they do not replace that judgment.

Preserving the record means keeping sources, dates, relevant replies and visible corrections. It does not mean exposing private identities or leaving threats, unsupported accusations or withdrawn accounts online. When an account cannot be published, a reviewer can leave a reason through the private receipt portal. Changes and corrections should be explained where it is safe to do so.

THE COMMUNITY MAKES THIS POSSIBLE

You do not have to do everything.
Your part can still matter.

Community help is the most important part of this mission. Readers can notice missing records, ask informed questions, improve accuracy and offer solidarity when someone feels alone. Financial support is one contribution; time, care and a well-sourced correction matter too.

Strengthen the record.

Point us to a public document, a dated institutional statement or a material error. Include the relevant case, link, date and passage so an editor can check it.

Send a correction or source →

Share on your terms.

Start with private review. You may also consent to an edited publication, choose whether to provide a private email, and withdraw with your receipt key. The I am Jane Doe collection welcomes de-identified experiences from any university and earlier decades. Private review and permission to publish are separate choices. Reader accounts remain labeled as accounts, not verified news or legal findings.

Offer care, not pressure.

Leave encouragement on the Support Wall or share a useful resource. Messages require approval. Do not identify survivors, repeat unsupported accusations or pressure someone to report.

Support lasting work.

The intended funding purposes are victim legal support, the website’s legal expenses, operating costs and separately budgeted peaceful protest materials. Merchandise and contribution inquiries receive human follow-up. Receiving details are not configured; no payments are taken here.

See support and funding status →

Have a suggestion, language skill, accessibility improvement or professional expertise to offer? We are grateful for practical help and general feedback. Every accepted contact creates a private ticket so it can be reviewed and followed up.

Help improve the platform

Peaceful civic participation must respect people’s safety and privacy. We do not encourage threats, harassment, private-address sharing or targeting relatives merely because of a family relationship. Read the peaceful-action policy.

COMPASSION AND EVIDENCE

Taking reports seriously means
checking them carefully.

This is a delicate subject with real consequences for everyone involved. We can listen with compassion while being precise about what a source proves. Our mission never decides the outcome of an individual case.

Care before exposure.

Read accounts without pressuring someone for graphic details. Review relevance, first-hand knowledge, identity risks and consent before deciding what can be shared. Remove unnecessary personal details and keep emails separate from public text. Editors can give a private explanation when a submission needs clarification or cannot be published. Publication is never the price of being listened to.

Facts before interpretation.

Why we say “alleged”

We describe unresolved criminal accusations as allegations and identify who makes each claim. Until a criminal court establishes guilt through a verdict or guilty plea, we do not describe an accused person as convicted or guilty. Civil findings, settlements and university discipline have different meanings.

Presenting a false accusation as a fact can lead to a defamation claim. “Alleged” is not a legal shield and cannot prevent someone from suing. We must also verify sources and identities, report fairly, include relevant responses and correct errors.

Read our editorial standards

Careful language protects fair reporting; it does not dismiss someone’s experience or decide whether an allegation is true.

We identify the source and the speaker. A complaint contains allegations; an institutional statement is that institution’s account; a ruling or verdict has a defined scope. We distinguish criminal convictions, civil settlements and disciplinary findings, include relevant denials, and preserve uncertainty.

We do not invent information, fill gaps with speculation, infer culpability from a surname or relationship, or turn reader opinion into a news fact. Public availability alone does not establish accuracy or permission to reuse an image.

Read the complete editorial standards →

A record people can check.

Each case has its own people, institutional response, sources and timeline. Event dates, source publication dates and archive update dates stay separate. Unknown dates remain unknown. Material changes and corrections carry a date and explanation.

We publish relevant responses beside allegations and provide a correction and right-of-reply channel. The historical archive supports careful comparison across decades without assuming every case has the same facts or outcome.

LEGAL SUPPORT · TRANSPARENT ALLOCATION

Help people pursue their options.
Keep the work accountable.

Money should support practical help and responsible reporting. These are the intended funding purposes. Funding decisions must respect the wishes of the people affected and remain separate from editorial decisions.

01 · PEOPLE AFFECTED

Victim legal support

Help with qualified legal advice, representation and case-related expenses where a lawyer assesses that a lawful route is available. The person affected chooses whether to pursue it. Eligibility, budgets and conflicts must be reviewed before an allocation; no prosecution or outcome is guaranteed.

02 · RESPONSIBLE PUBLISHING

Website legal expenses

Advice on publication, privacy, corrections and image rights, and the website’s response to legal claims or other legal issues. Track these expenses separately from money restricted to an individual’s case.

03 · KEEPING THE WORK AVAILABLE

Website operations

Hosting, bandwidth, secure storage, security, accessibility and responsible editorial administration. Volunteer contribution is central, but qualified legal review, research and reliable infrastructure still need funding. Reviewed billboard space and peaceful awareness materials require accurate messages, permissions and a separate budget; no placement is confirmed.

No payment is accepted through this site yet. Before fundraising opens, we must identify the receiving legal entity, confirm bank and wallet details, publish eligibility and allocation rules, and explain what happens if a case cannot proceed or a restricted purpose cannot be fulfilled. Legal eligibility depends on the case and jurisdiction and needs qualified assessment; we do not decide it from a testimonial.

Approved expenses should have a dated, privacy-safe record. Donors cannot buy publication, a legal finding, a prosecution or influence over coverage. Sponsorships must be disclosed. A general contribution may support the website’s own legal costs; a gift restricted to victim legal support must be tracked for that purpose. No tax deduction or legal representation is promised.

Every three months, a public funding report.

We will publish the amount received and the expenses, separating donations, sponsorships and shop receipts and showing the balance carried forward. Only confirmed receipts and documented expenses count; private supporter and survivor details remain private. The first report will cover the first three months of fundraising.

Donations and disclosed sponsorships are the primary funding routes. T-shirts and digital art are an additional way to help when those are not enough. Supporting lasting change comes first.

FROM ATTENTION TO FOLLOW-THROUGH

Progress should be visible.

We want reporting to make it easier to ask concrete questions and assess the answers. These are the questions our mission keeps in view; they are not findings about every institution in the archive.

  1. Can people get help without surrendering control?Look for clear support options, privacy explanations and protection against retaliation.
  2. Can the public understand the response?Look for a dated account of actions and, where disclosure is appropriate, aggregate outcomes with their limits explained.
  3. Do promised reforms become practice?Look for responsible offices, deadlines, implementation updates and evidence of impact.
  4. What remains unresolved?Keep unanswered questions visible and update them when reliable evidence becomes available.

PUBLIC RECORD · CHECKED 5 OCTOBER 2026

The latest additions,
with their limits intact.

The following source additions inform the Cornell dossier. This is a dated researched edition, not a continuously monitored feed.

Reported development · 29 September 2026

Attorney General’s review.

CNN reports that a spokesperson for New York Attorney General Letitia James said her office was reviewing Cornell’s response to the allegations. This September review concerns Cornell’s response. On 1 October, the Attorney General’s office was also appointed special prosecutor for the alleged assault. These roles are distinct; neither appointment establishes a finding against a defendant or institution.

News reporting · CNN Newsource

Attorney General’s office reviewing Cornell response — CNN ↗

Source date: 29 Sept 2026 · Checked 1 Oct 2026

CNN attributes confirmation to an Attorney General’s office spokesperson. The syndicated article includes a correction to the day of confirmation. Review status is distinct from criminal proceedings.

Student resolutions · Checked 5 October 2026

Transparency and prevention requests.

The Sun reports the Assembly passed Resolutions 15, 16 and 17 on October 1, seeking transparency, training review and counseling access. Cornell’s official Resolution 15 page still lists “In Discussion” when checked October 5. We preserve both accounts; passage does not establish university approval or implementation.

News reporting on student governance

Student Assembly hearing and three resolution votes — The Cornell Daily Sun ↗

Source date: 3 Oct 2026 · Checked 4 Oct 2026

Published October 3 at 10:16 p.m.; updated October 4 at 1:13 a.m., as displayed by the publisher. Reports the October 1 meeting and passage of Resolutions 15, 16 and 17. Resolution 15’s official page still says In Discussion when checked October 4. Assembly passage, presidential approval and implementation remain distinct.

Student governance proposal

Student Assembly Resolution 15 (2026–2027) ↗

Source date: Publication date not confirmed · Checked 5 Oct 2026

Official page still lists In Discussion when directly checked October 5. The separately linked October 3 Sun report says the Assembly passed the resolution October 1. This archive preserves both accounts without inferring presidential approval or implementation. Original introduction/publication date is unstated.

The source page does not state a publication date. We date our check, not the proposal’s introduction.

The Cornell timeline also includes newly added, attributed police-interview reporting. Cornell’s own response and the reported outside-review agreement remain in the institutional dossier. Relevant individual denials and identity cautions remain on the profiles.

AN ANONYMOUS COLLECTIVE

The mission comes before our names.

We intend to remain under a collective identity to reduce exposure to threats, harassment and pressure. The work is not a vehicle for a founder’s recognition. Keeping personal identities private does not remove our duty to be accurate, disclose relevant conflicts, explain methods and correct mistakes.

We are an independent media source, unaffiliated with Cornell or any university we cover. Donors and sponsors cannot buy a reporting outcome, suppressed information or a moderation decision.

Contact the collective →
HONEST ABOUT WHAT WE OFFER

Care includes clear boundaries.

Reader submissions request no name and are encrypted for private review. Email follow-up is the default contact choice and requires consent; people who choose no-email mode can check a private response with their receipt key. Contact details never appear in public drafts. We cannot promise complete technical anonymity: hosting and sign-in involve connection data. Read the privacy information and remove identifying details before submitting.

Confidential case evidence intake is not open yet. We are not an emergency, counseling or legal service. Before fundraising begins, the receiving entity, legal-support eligibility and allocation rules must be identified; future distributions must be documented.

OUR SHARED PURPOSE

More safety. More support.
Accountability that lasts.

Justice is a commitment to careful work and fair processes. Prevention means following through. Helping means respecting people’s choices. The community gives this mission its strength.

About page added 1 October 2026 · Updated . Our mission is independent and open to experiences from every university.

Latest Cornell check · 6 October 2026. The president’s response, student-governance reporting and earlier police-log entry are dated in the Cornell timeline. The Attorney General’s investigation of the alleged assault is separate from the earlier reported review of Cornell’s response.
CARE IN PRACTICE

A report should begin a careful conversation.

People need a way to speak without losing control of their story. Our private review channels accept experiences from any university and any decade. The Legal Support Wall adds a way to ask for practical help; the Shame Wall documents harmful responses without sending readers after commenters.

Every accepted submission creates a ticket. A reviewer can request clarification, redact an edited draft and explain a decision through the private receipt portal. Sharing permission is separate from permission to review. Withdrawals remove retained originals and linked publications from this site.

Community help can mean a source correction, translation, accessibility feedback, qualified legal expertise or practical funding. Help is never a condition of being heard, and donors cannot determine what we publish.

We remain an anonymous independent collective for our safety. That does not remove our duty to document sources, protect privacy, correct errors and be accountable for editorial decisions. Publishing public information is not a guarantee against legal claims; careful review and qualified advice remain necessary.

Community channels added 2 October 2026. Private requests are open for review; lawyer services and confidential evidence intake are not yet confirmed. Bank-wire and crypto instructions are communicated privately by email after review.

A COLLECTIVE, ALREADY AT WORK

We work together.
We welcome more help.

We already work collaboratively with people who care about this mission. We are always looking for more support through source checking, research, translation, accessibility, qualified professional expertise and thoughtful suggestions. Contributors can help without being publicly identified; duties involving private material require authorized access.
