OSU Ignored 1,500 Allegations Against Doctor for Decades

An investigation into former Ohio State University (OSU) team doctor Dr. Richard Strauss has uncovered over 1,500 separate allegations of sexual assault by former students. These claims, dating back to 1979, involve both male and female students accusing Dr. Strauss of inappropriate touching and rape.


The investigation also revealed that several students had previously filed official complaints against Dr. Strauss with coaches, trainers, and athletic department officials, reporting sexual misconduct. Despite these complaints, OSU failed to take corrective action. A recent lawsuit alleges that OSU was aware of Dr. Strauss's long history of abuse but chose not to act, and even actively concealed the misconduct.
