The Penn State fiasco writ smaller?
Athletic Management : Momentum Media:
"After two members of the men's ice hockey team were arrested on charges of sexual assault, Boston University's President organized the Men's Ice Hockey Task Force to investigate the attitude and environment surrounding the hockey team. The task force findings were released at the end of August and concluded that "a culture of sexual entitlement exists among some players on the men's ice hockey team, stemming in part from their elevated social status on campus." The report also included a list of 14 recommendations to be implemented at the administrative and athletic levels during the 2012 fall semester.
In December 2011, a member of the Boston University men's ice hockey team was arrested and charged with three counts of indecent assault and one count of battery after an incident involving a female BU student. Two months later, another member of the men's ice hockey team was arrested and charged with sexually assaulting a female BU student. Following these charges, Boston University President Robert A. Brown established the Men's Ice Hockey Task Force on March 7. Brown's statement described the duties of the task force."
"Your charge is to review, as comprehensively as you are able, the culture and climate of the men's hockey program, and to offer the University a thoughtful and impartial assessment. The goal is to answer the question whether that culture and climate could have contributed to the actions, that, in turn, led to criminal charges."
