Here's the part where Cornell requires a "reflection paper" from a perp who testified that after he got the "free pussy" text, he only went into the room because one of the guys in there had a vape he could borrow.

Within ninety (90) days after this Decision becomes final (otherwise subject to
reasonable extension approved by the Title IX Coordinator), Respondent will submit
to the Title IX OfEcc a reflection paper that engages with the specific circumstances for
which he was found responsible and contains a detailed proposal for future University
educational materials to train undergraduate students around the intersection of social
media use and sexual harassment, as well as bystander intervention. The reflection paper
must also include recommendations to the University's Office of Sorority & Fraternity
Life with respect to substance use prevention efforts in Greek Life organizations on
campus. Use of artificial intelligence tools of any kind in the creation of this reflection
paper is prohibited.
" The Hearing Panel expects that Respondent will take this educational opportunity
seriously and apply what he learns to help improve the University/Greek Life community.
