The U.S. Department of Education confirmed Thursday that it is reviewing how Marquette University handled two separate cases of alleged sexual assault involving athletes last February and in October 2010.
The review falls under the federal Clery Act. That is the same act that prompted federal authorities to launch an investigation of the alleged sexual abuse scandal involving a former Penn State University football coach that has prompted the firings of head football coach Joe Paterno and university president Graham Spanier.
