Cornell Examines Taser Use

October 24, 2007 - 11:00pm
By Michael Stratford

In light of the tasering of a University of Florida student in September that sparked a national dialogue about campus security, free speech and the use of Tasers on college campuses, the Student Assembly is looking into how those issues apply to Cornell.

“As advocates of undergraduate students, we felt an obligation to investigate: can this happen at Cornell?” asked C.J. Slicklen ’09, executive vice president of the S.A.

“In short, the answer is no,” he said.

The Cornell University Police Department does not arm its officers with Taser guns and has no plans to purchase the devices, according to CUPD Captain Kathy Zoner.
