“It’s such a disappointment considering how much affinity groups have even helped me (a heterosexual cisgender man) understand the unique challenges my female students and colleagues faced that beforehand went completely over my head. Thanks to The Women’s Place at Ohio State I learned to more universally design learning opportunities, better assess perspective hires capabilities, and optimize collaborations to better leverage the unique perspectives of my mentees and colleagues. It’s a damn shame incoming students and faculty won’t get the same benefits of The Women’s Place (at least not until litigation or ballot repeal of OH SB-1 passes).”

ABJ OP ED:
My daughter is a student at Ohio University.
She’s enjoying the summer with friends in a shared house off campus before her senior year.
Yesterday she called me as she was walking home from work. We were catching up on her day when she said, “Guess what, Mom...they are taking down the letters from the Women’s Center right now. I can’t believe they are actually doing this.”
The image of a hopeful young woman gloomily walking by the physical dismantling of a supportive centerpiece of the female community is striking and disturbing. In the year 2025! I ask the people in the Ohio General Assembly: What is so terribly wrong and threatening about women on a college campus having a place to gather, to share common experiences, to seek assistance for uniquely female issues? It literally angered me so much that I felt myself starting to shake.
Shame on GOVERNOR MIKE DEWINE for signing SB 1 into law! And shame on SENATOR JERRY CIRINO for spearheading the effort!
Sad to say, but I am encouraging my daughter to explore her future outside of this increasingly backward state that I recognize less and less every day.

Mark Vopat, the union’s president, said he was “disappointed” Johnson
contributed money from his PAC to those who backed the bill.
“I don’t believe it’s a good idea for any university president to operate a
PAC,” Vopat said. “It poses a conflict of interest. University presidents
can have personal views and we’ve had them contribute out of their
own pocket to politicians. A PAC is on a different level.”
Vopat added: “This is the first time I’ve seen a university president
operate a PAC. There seems to be a conflict with the responsibilities of
being a university president and who you represent.”
