In the 54 hours following The Daily Northwestern’s release of a report that detailed allegations of sexual hazing, the world heard little from Northwestern University.
That all changed on Monday night, when Northwestern parted ways with head coach Pat Fitzgerald according to Matt Fortuna of The Athletic. After 16 seasons coaching the Wildcats, Fitzgerald will not return to the sidelines as the team’s leader.
On Jan. 11, Northwestern hired ArentFox Schiff to open an investigation into claims of alleged hazing by a former player. Last Friday, July 7, after almost six months, ArentFox Schiff released a report which concluded that hazing occurred in the Northwestern program.
