The civil rights groups urged Sexton and Mills to “act firmly and forcefully to discipline the individual perpetrators and any organization that facilitated their actions.”
According to some reports, the perpetrators are affiliated with an organization that has recently engaged in similar infractions at other institutions, leading to their recent suspension and subsequent probation at one university. “In the event that the organization has been involved in multiple infractions at New York University,” the Brandies Center and The Lawfare Project urged NYU to “consider this as well in the course of administering firm disciplinary action.”
