MSU keeps denying our FOIAs for records of employees repeatedly investigated by the Title IX office and repeatedly cleared of misconduct.
So, we're suing them over it.

.@MIAttyGen @dananessel released the following statement after the Michigan State University Board of Trustees vote to release the University’s documents related to the Larry Nassar investigation. Read more ➡️ michigan.gov/ag/news/press-r…
ALT Green backdrop. Michigan Department of Attorney General seal. Quote from AG Nessel: “The students, the MSU community at-large, and most importantly, the victims of Larry Nassar have long been owed this transparency. I am encouraged to see the MSU Board of Trustees finally make the right decision on a long-promised, and long-delayed, measure of transparency. We appreciate the opportunity to review these documents and will reopen and expedite our investigation as soon as they are received.”

More than 48 hours after details of the sexual harassment investigation of Mel Tucker became public, MSU will not detail the oversight measures it put in place for Tucker nearly 9 months ago.

Given that MSU never engaged in an honest, transparent and robust assessment and institutional transformation process, this is nothing BUT the "MSU of old".
There has been one consistent trajectory at MSU. Obfuscate and wait. Repeatedly refuse transparency and accountability.

It’s hard to explain the level of scrutiny the university’s handling of this will face, but I’m going to try. Properly handling sexual assault & harassment is MSU’s glaring weak spot and this is the biggest imaginable test. 🧵

Nessel: MSU board chair orchestrated plan to release Nassar documents, but didn't follow through statenews.com/article/2023/0…
Madison O'Connor retweeted
No, MSU, you are not sorry. You are choosing over and over to refuse transparency and truth to the 100's of children you allowed to be assaulted by your doctor.
There are multiple ways we could set this up to get answers in a trauma-informed, truthful way.
You simply refuse.
At the tail end of @michiganstateu’s Board of Trustees meeting, Chair Rema Vassar shares MSU “will not be taking further action” on AG Dana Nessel’s request for the thousands of documents related to her department’s investigation into Larry Nassar.
