There are many groups who currently are trying to remove the bad image of Penn State University. According to an article published in the New York Times, former students of the university are still very upset at how the institution had dealt with the scandal that involved Sandusky. They are also still very much upset over the FBI report that stated Paterno and others covered up the crime and the N.C.A.A. Sanctions.
These alumni, who now have their sons and daughters attend the school, believe that the school had been treated unfairly. According to Terry Engelder, Faculty members were still agitated because “the rush to unfair judgment has done unspeakable damage to the university’s reputation worldwide.”
Even today, the scandal continues to drastically affect the university; the school had been authorized to spend approximately $60 million dollars to settle 30 outstanding claims that have been made by victims of Sandusky. There are also various faculty members who are still set to stand trial for their suspected roles in the scandal. The suspected faculty members are Graham Spanier, who was the former president of the university, Tim Curley, former athletic director, and Gary Schultz, former vice president of the university.
The school, will still face challenges based on those action for years to come. For instance, the football team is not allowed to appear in a bowl game for another three seasons, and the school is prohibited from handing out scholarships until the 2017 season.
Though, I recently heard that the school might start giving back scholarships soon.
