A woman who sued Michigan State University over how it handled her rape allegations has gone public with her name and details of her story. In an interview in The New York Times, Bailey Kowalski says she was raped in 2015 by three members of the Michigan State basketball team. Further, she charges that when she went to a Michigan State counselor to discuss what had happened, she was discouraged from reporting the incident. Michigan State is not commenting on her allegations but is moving to have her case dismissed.
