A shorter URL for the above link: . http://tinyurl.com/dy6yfr2 . .July 19 (Bloomberg) -- Penn State University Board Chairwoman Karen Peetz said a special task force is evaluating the fundamental culture of the school after an investigation found university officials covered up a child sex-abuse scandal involving a former assistant football coach.
.As we move forward, we will work to rebuild a culture that will be shaped by the highest commitment to academics and athletics --- but ultimately, a culture of transparency and accountability, Peetz, vice chairwoman of Bank of New York Mellon Corp., said in a e-mailed letter to alumni.
.A report released last week by former Federal Bureau of Investigation Director Louis Freeh said the schools top executives, including former university President Graham Spanier and football coach Joe Paterno, concealed sexual abuse of children by ex-assistant coach Jerry Sandusky to protect the school from bad publicity.
.The National Collegiate Athletic Association -- college sports governing body -- is awaiting a response from Penn State officials before determining on penalties for the athletic program. NCAA President Mark Emmert has said no sanctions are off the table, including a shutdown of football or the athletic department. Penn State President Rodney Erickson said two days ago that the university would officially respond to the NCAAs request for information within days.
.Penn State needs to figure out how theyre going to right this ship, and if it is shutting down football for a year or two to figure it out for themselves, then they need to do it, said Jason Lanter, a professor of psychology at Pennsylvanias Kutztown University and former president of the Drake Group, a professors alliance to defend academic integrity from the sports industry.
