New Brunswick — Rutgers University released a 38-page report by an independent investigator today dissecting how the school mishandled the basketball scandal that led to the firing of coach Mike Rice earlier this year.

The law firm’s review also recommends Rutgers make changes to several school policies, including the adoption of a new risk assessment program and better coordination between campus human resources officials.
