Federal authorities are investigating a complaint that Yale University has failed to adequately respond to allegations of on-campus sexual harassment and misconduct. Students describe a “sexually hostile” environment at the school.
Sixteen current and former Yale University students filed the complaint under Title IX, with the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights.
21-year old Yale student Alexandra Brodsky:
"The complaint catalogues recent very public acts of misogyny and then the complaint also includes personal testimony detailing instances of harassment and assault. What I think is most important is that Yale start acknowledging the gravity of these incidences."
In a statement Yale says the university will cooperate fully with the federal investigation, and takes extremely seriously all allegations of sexual harassment and misconduct.
