Four instructors from an Iowa college were stabbed in a public park in China over the weekend while in the country to teach at a partner university, according to school officials and lawmakers.
The instructors from Cornell College in Mount Vernon, Iowa were attacked inside Beishan Park in Jilin City Sunday during a visit there with a faculty member from Beihua University, the president of the small private college said Monday.
“We have learned that four Cornell instructors teaching as part of a partnership with a university in China were injured in a serious incident during a daytime visit to a public park while accompanied by a faculty member of the partner institution,” Cornell President Jonathan Brand said in a statement.
“We have been in contact with all four instructors and are assisting them during this time.”
No students were taking part in the long-standing program between Cornell College and Beihua University, Brand added.

The Knicks won’t be raising a banner to the rafters at Madison Square Garden to commemorate their victory in the 2025 NBA Cup, and you can count your humble narrator among the faction that wishes they’d chosen differently. I’m not quite sure when it became mandatory to rinse as much fun out of sports as possible, but we’re sure trying.
