Re: “An Update on Gender Equality,” Opinion, March 9

President Skorton deserves our praise and recognition for his attention to the issues surrounding gender. He emphasizes both the student body and the faculty as areas in which improvement in gender equality can, and indeed will, advance in the coming years. However, I have significant concerns with the framing of the article, as the author paints a rosy picture of the successes of gender equality at Cornell, while undermining the needed focus on the failures we still face as a community.
