## Resource

Ohio State University just approved a $100 million payout to 279 student athletes alleging sexual abuse by former team doctor Dr. Richard Strauss — adding to the $61 million already paid to 317 others. Strauss, who served from 1979 until his dismissal in 1996, died in 2005. University President Ravi Bellamkonda praised survivors for their courage and reaffirmed their place in the Buckeyes family. The settlement, reached after years of legal setbacks and a looming October trial, was hailed as a path to closure by both sides. State Senator Bill DeMora called the trial a potential disaster for the program and while regretful of the delay, welcomed the resolution.
