On Wednesday, hundreds of medical students and sexual assault survivors of former university obstetrician Robert Hadden protested at Columbia University’s campus calling for accountability during the inauguration ceremony of the university’s first woman president. We speak with medical students and survivors demanding Columbia take action to notify all former patients of Hadden about his previous sexual assault convictions by the November 23 deadline of New York’s Adult Survivors Act. “Wouldn’t you want to know if your OB-GYN had sexually assaulted 500 other patients?” asks survivor and activist Evelyn Yang, who has been sharing her experience publicly since 2020.
