This issue obviously goes way deeper than Ted Carter. Ohio's Statehouse GOP supermajority has been quietly appointing MAGA types to the boards of trustees at several universities for a while now. But we can still celebrate the awful president of my alma mater being ousted!

You know this man is a snake oil salesman when he has a picture with MAGA Mike Johnson

I find it fascinating how these funders of predatory behavior get the benefit of the doubt over and over again while the victims (in this case, both male and female) get their lives and testimonies dragged through the mud. Time to believe survivors.

JIC you weren’t aware, the Kirwin Institute at OSU was a big leader in promoting equality and democracy. Huge. Ted shut them down.OSU also let go of many, many experts in their given fields. Shameful.

Rachel, it’s The Ohio State Board of Trustees that are at fault here. They are ALL MAGAts and were well-aware of the red flags coming from his previous stint at the University of Nebraska. Are you aware that the FEDERAL JUDICIARY ruled the STRIPPING of DEI programs and departments were ruled Unconstitutional? These programs should immediately be reopened at The Ohio State University and EVERY public university in Ohio. These programs were important the the LGBTQIA communities on these campuses.
