The Roman Catholic Diocese of Rochester notified Cornell and Ithaca College of an allegation of sexual abuse of a minor against Reverend Carsten Martensen.
Father Martensen has served in campus ministry at Cornell University and Ithaca College since 2007.
“To our knowledge the allegation dates from the 1970s and does not correlate with Cornell, past or present. Father Martensen is not an employee of Cornell University, so the investigation is being led by the Jesuits USA Northeast Province,” said John Carberry, Senior Director of Media Relations and News at Cornell.
