About 41% of male college athletes said in a survey that they had been told about an incident of sexual assault or domestic violence, but that they were largely unaware of their school's procedures on what to do next, and many mistrusted school and law enforcement officials to handle an investigation, according to a study released Tuesday.
The study by the sexual assault prevention group It's On Us surveyed 710 male athletes from nine schools, ranging from teams at Division I schools to club teams at smaller colleges. Clemson University was the only school included from a Power Five conference.
