A group of former Northwestern athletes has sent an open letter focused on university president Michael Schill and athletics director Derrick Gragg and alleging a lack of due process before the firing of football coach Pat Fitzgerald.
Monday's letter contends Schill was influenced by social media reaction and"abandoned foundational legal ethics" in firing Fitzgerald.
They cited Gragg's quick repudiation of a T-shirt Northwestern players made following Fitzgerald's firing "His comments worked to incite public opinion against his own program," the letter reads."Gragg made no effort to explain the team's true intent before renouncing and shaming the players' speech."The university has released only an executive summary of the original hazing investigation, led by attorney Maggie Hickey from the Chicago-based ArentFox Schiff law firm.
