'A reckoning': Cornell faculty approve no-confidence vote in school leaders

Cornell’s Faculty Senate on Friday Nov. 6 approved a vote of no confidence in university administrators, dealing a symbolic blow to embattled President Michael Kotlikoff, who has received mounting criticism over his handling of campus sexual assault . "This vote is a reckoning for our University," Faculty Senators who brought forward the no confidence vote said in a statement. "It is a call for real, systemic change; not a slow-moving taskforce, weakly enforced ban on fraternity parties, or expensive PR damage control, but meaningful, evidence-based steps to reduce the incidence of sexual assault on campus and provide significant support to and justice for survivors." According to a faculty union spokesperson, the no confidence vote passed in the Faculty Senate with 75 votes for the resolution and 50 against it. It marks the first time the university's faculty Senate has passed such a no confidence vote in its 56-year history. In response to a request for comment, the university shared a statement from its board of trustees. "Today’s Faculty Senate vote reflects the deep anger across our campus and sends a clear signal that what happened to Jane Doe is unacceptable. There is no place for sexual violence on the Cornell

Binghamton University students turn EMT frustration into a new company

EMS personnel across the country may soon have significantly more time to respond to critical emergencies thanks to new technology pioneered by two Binghamton University students. While the COVID-19 pandemic was spent sheltering indoors away from others, it helped spur a passion in emergency services for Binghamton University seniors Joshua Ackerman and Yoav Reshef. Now years removed from the high school days that marked the start of their foray into becoming EMTs, the two are working to make life easier for emergency service workers. Thanks to technology developed by the students’ company, Lucent EMS Solutions, EMTs could save precious time formerly spent filing paperwork, allowing for more efficient processes and ultimately, more time helping those in need. In October, Lucent won second place at Empire State Development and FuzeHub's invention competition, winning $110,000. Binghamton University students develop time-saving technology for EMTs Originally started in February 2026, Lucent has had an objectively successful year, as far as new companies go. Before taking home second place in the invention competition, Lucent won the grand prize at the NY Business Plan Competition in April — resulting in a critical $25,000 check that has helped the company grow in the following months.
