Of course it is the attorney speaking so many grains of salt are needed, but since this will be read by a lot of people in Chicago today, might as well see the article...

NU hazing scandal could be biggest ever in college sports, attorney says

Attorneys Parker Stinar and Patrick Salvi Jr. said they have heard from Northwestern athletes who describe abuse that is far worse in women’s sports than in the football program formerly run by fired head coach Pat Fitzgerald.

There is no paywall for S-T's due to its non-profit model. You do have to register but it's free.

We really need all of these things to go to trial so we can get depositions (you know, real truth). That will cost NU a fortune (vs. settling), but it might be the best investment NU could ever make.

Good Lord. WTF is going on out there?

This wouldn’t surprise me.

I heard the sorority experience at NU was much more vicious than the fraternity experience.

I just hope none of our WLAX championships are tainted.

Shut the athletic department down.

Until now, I have merely supported leaving the Big Ten. But I am leaning towards ending all sports at NU after this deluge of horrific news.

Crucify me if you like, but it is what I genuinely favor. I do not think this is an overreaction.

Northwestern doesn’t need this shame.
