Statement by UW System President Katharine Lyall concerning NCAA self report

April 24, 2001

“Throughout this long process, UW–Madison officials have handled the investigation with the seriousness it deserves. Today’s report is a thorough analysis of a very complex subject. While we cannot predict how the NCAA will respond to the report and the self-imposed penalties, I do appreciate the exhaustive work UW–Madison has done reviewing the situation and preparing its findings. I also applaud the efforts now under way at UW–Madison to better educate its students, staff and fans concerning the NCAA rules and regulations we all must abide by.”
