Baylor University is making progress to gain back funding currently being withheld from the university until a review of requirements is complete. University president Linda Livingstone announced that Baylor is fully cooperating with the Big 12 in every aspect in order to receive finances from the conference.
Baylor hired Pepper Hamilton law firm in 2015 to do an independent investigation on sexual assault on and around Baylor’s campus and came up with 105 recommendations for the university to implement, in order to gain back some of its standing. The scandal resulted in former university president Ken Starr, former athletic director Ian McCaw and former head football coach Art Briles leaving the university.
