The Ithacan

We must remain dedicated to the values of integrity, honesty and justice, even if our lawmakers do not.

Bill Cosby was sentenced three to 10 years in state prison Sept. 25. for sexually assaulting Andrea Constand.

So, let’s believe survivors. Let’s believe every single one of them. We only have everything to gain.

This begs the question, “why are people more inclined to give women who are alleged sexual abusers the benefit of the doubt?”

In tandem, these movements contribute to the larger, widespread reckoning of perpetrators of sexual abuse that has taken our nation, and the world, by storm — and rightfully so.

The trial centers around allegations made by Andrea Constand, a former employee of Temple University, who said that Cosby drugged her and sexually assaulted her in 2004.

The first three days of the program are dedicated to classroom components of personal self-awareness, while the fourth is for simulated training.

If Ms. Collado was such a strong candidate, the search committee and the board had a responsibility to be forthcoming regarding this issue from her past.

efore we pass judgment on Dr. Collado’s character, let’s remind ourselves that the accusations arrived anonymously. 

President Collado was transparent throughout the hiring process and beyond, though to varying degrees with different constituencies.

Hiring a president in total secrecy isn’t just unfair to the campus — it’s unfair to the president, who comes into office crippled by the community’s lack of ownership in the decision.

Ithaca College cannot expect us to trust therapists and medical staff with our most painful traumas if, when we have something inconvenient to say, we are immediately dismissed.
