Reposted by Tim PierceJen Taub @jentaub.bsky.social · 22hLet this sink in. Cornell University refused to refund Jane Doe's tuition the semester she was raped. Without this money, she could not transfer to another school. Essentially, she was forced to stay on campus where she saw those seven rapists frequently. Eventually she dropped out of college. 521957615

Reposted by Tim PierceJessica Valenti @jessicavalenti.bsky.social · 29/09/2026This is why more women don't come forward, and why more rapists aren't jailed. Because mostly-male cops and prosecutors find it more believable that a 20-yr-old would want to have sex with a room full of fraternity brothers than accept she was raped.
