The suit, in which Ms Kowalski is listed as Jane Doe and the now former "notable" players are not identified, alleges that she was 18 on April 12, 2015, when she met the players at an East Lansing bar about a week after the team lost in the Final Four.
After telling a counsellor that basketball players were involved, she said the staff discouraged her from notifying the police. "Lastly, I want the system surrounding Michigan State University to change, and I want all people to be treated with dignity and respect regardless of their status or the revenue they bring to the university."
Ms Kowalski, who was studying to be a sports journalist before the encounter, has no plan to file a police report but is not ruling it out completely, said her attorney, Karen Truszkowski.
Basketball players ... what race?
I guess we’re going to see photos, names and hear intricate details of the alleged perpetrators before the court process too.
