'I'm very shocked' - College students react to Cornell University rape investigation

New York state prosecutors have reopened an investigation into the alleged rape of a woman at Cornell University in 2024.
The woman filed a civil lawsuit against the Ivy League university on 16 September alleging she was drugged and assaulted at a fraternity house at the university.
She also alleged that Cornell failed to protect her or adequately punish the men involved. Cornell has said it supported presenting the case to a grand jury, while rejecting as "false" claims that it failed to punish those involved.
The BBC spoke to college students in Washington DC about their reactions to the latest information about the incident.
