Officials at the University of Massachusetts at Dartmouth responded appropriately in the days following the Boston Marathon bombing after they learned one of the school’s students was a suspect in the attack, according to a task-force report issued Thursday.

The task force found there was nothing school officials could have done to prevent the tragedy. But the independent group suggested several security and system improvements for the university’s campus, which is about 60 miles south of Boston.
