Oregon State University President Ed Ray announced Monday that Gill Coliseum, the school's basketball arena and athletic department hub, will keep its name.
The decision comes following a multi-month review process analyzing the namesakes of four on-campus buildings after two years of challenges to their names.
The school published a report six weeks ago concluding that legendary OSU men's basketball coach Amory "Slats" Gill did not deliberately keep his teams segregated during his 36-year tenure from 1928-1964.
"I find that the scholars' report and naming review process offers no evidence that Gill deliberately sought to keep the Oregon State men's basketball team from becoming integrated," Ray wrote in a statement.
