Princeton suspends men's swim team over vulgar messages


(Reuters) - New Jersey's Princeton University has suspended its men's swim team over offensive content on a team message service, marking the third such action against an Ivy League athletic squad since November.

The decision by Athletic Director Mollie Marcoux Samaan and coach Rob Orr came after a complaint this week about material on the team's listserv message application, the New Jersey school said in a statement late on Thursday.
