IOWA CITY (AP) - Two University of Iowa officials who received the harshest criticism in an independent review of a sexual assault case won't attend a meeting that will review their actions.

Phillip Jones and Marcus Mills caught the worst of a law firm's review of the university's response to the alleged assault in October that involved two former football players.

Neither will be at a meeting Thursday of the Iowa Board of Regents, which will discuss the review and decide what, if any, action to take. A university spokesman says Jones and Mills don't typically attend meetings.
