The Cornell Daily Sun (https://cornellsun.com/tag/federal-investigation/)
The U.S. Department of Education announced Cornell is a subject of an investigation into violations of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act in connection with antisemitic and anti-Muslim harassment.
While summer pursuits were occupying many a Cornellian, a jarring story dropped back here on the Hill. In a July 3 letter to President Martha Pollack, the Department of Education suggested Cornell may have violated the Higher Education Act of 1965. The University’s alleged misdeed? A failure to duly disclose financial relationships with China and Qatar. Last March, after The Sun uncovered lucrative research arrangements between Cornell and the Chinese telecom firm Huawei, the University assured us there was nothing to worry about.
