When he left Creighton, Mr. Ross had the overall language skills of a fourth grader and the reading skills of a seventh grader. Consequently, Mr. Ross enrolled, at Creighton's expense, for a year of remedial education at the Westside Preparatory School in Chicago. At Westside, Mr. Ross attended classes with grade school children.
BOB LEY, ESPN - March 17th, 2002. March madness is about basketball, not the system of higher education supporting these games. In the wake of revelations of abysmal graduation rates, questions abound about how prepared young players are to attend college, recalling this former player's experience.
KEVIN ROSS - I opened that book up, I was just scared to death because I said this is what it's all about. How am I going to get through this?
LEY - Kevin Ross made national headlines when he completed four years of college and was found to be illiterate.
LISA SALTERS - Did they know you couldn't read?

The Pope has been accused of failing to act against a known paedophile priest.
The claim that Pope Benedict XVI covered up the case of an American curate who abused 200 deaf children sent shockwaves through the Vatican.
Correspondence published between U.S. bishops and the future pontiff in the 1990s apparently show that he ignored their pleas for him to act.
