Ohio State University president Michael Drake, and provost Bruce McPheron answer questions during an interview about the accusations against former team doctor Richard Strauss.
The probe looked into misconduct allegations from 1979 to 1997 reported by former students – 150 of whom reported first-hand accounts of sexual abuse committed by Strauss Strauss established the private medical office in 1996 after he was suspended from his activities as a treating physician at the school but remained a tenured faculty member.
“On behalf of the university, we offer our profound regret and sincere apologies to each person who endured Strauss’s abuse. Our institution’s fundamental failure at the time to prevent this abuse was unacceptable – as were the inadequate efforts to thoroughly investigate complaints raised by students and staff members.”The abuse, which included “excessive” genital exams and fondling, “escalated over time” as students underwent a series of examinations, according to the report.
