Cornell Police Chief Kathy Zoner attended the Experience Israel Training Tour in Tel Aviv, Israel, in October, becoming the first police chief of a university to do so. During her stay, Zoner and 10 other conference attendees were given an inside look at the security operations of Israel’s counterterrorism initiatives. 

The 75-percent increased in drug- and alcohol-related crime at Cornell makes us question the philosophy of CUPD and the cause of such an increase.

The recent incident of “forcible touching” that occurred in Collegetown this month reminded us of the psychological pitfalls of living in a small town like Ithaca. The Cornell community was alerted via an e-mail, which informed it that a young woman had been assaulted. It reminded us to walk at night in groups, lock our doors and windows and inform Cornell and Ithaca police of any suspicious activity.
