- Sixteen former Michigan hockey players filed a lawsuit Wednesday against the university, alleging the program tolerated decades of ritualized hazing that was sexual in nature.
- University of Michigan former hockey coaches and other school leaders allegedly "turned a blind eye" to the hazing, according to the lawsuit's allegations.
Why it matters: The suit, brought by 16 plaintiffs, frames the alleged misconduct as a decades-long institutional failure — implicating not just individual bad actors but university leadership who allegedly knew and did nothing.
