January 201 8 PD. Box 6222 Indianapolis, Indiana 46206 Telephone: 317/917-6222 Mr. Mark Hollis Athletics Director Shipping/Overnight Address: Michigan State University 1802 Alonzo Warlord Sr. Drive 550 South Harrison Road, Room 4040 Indianapolis, Indiana 46202 East Lansing, MiChigan 48823 Dear Mark: Recent public and media reports have detailed the heinous and appalling assaults Larry Nassar perpetrated against girls and young women, some of whom were student athletes at Michigan State University at the time of the assaults. It is our understanding that Michigan State has requested the attorney general of the state of Michigan to further investigate the events surrounding Nassar as a Michigan State physician serving your athletic department. As you know, the NCAA is a member-led organization dedicated to the well-being and lifelong success of college athletes. Article 2.2 of the NCAA constitution establishes the principle of protecting student-athlete well?being, including health and safety, and Bylaw 20.9.1.6 speci?cally identi?es well?being as an imperative for Division 1 members. The NCAA and its member institutions can only support our collective mission when our members, including Michigan State, adhere to the constitution and the bylaws they?ve adopted. Larry Nassar?s heinous crimes of record against more than 150 victims raise serious concerns about institutional practices, student-athlete safety and the institution?s actions to protect individuals from his behavior. The NCAA relies upon a collaborative model, whereby member institutions are expected, and required, to self-report possible violations of NCAA rules and/or policies. To date, Michigan State has sent no information to the NCAA national of?ce regarding Nassar?s actions, his role as a team physician, affected student athletes, operation of athletic department practices or policies, remediation efforts or involvement of those on campus, inside and outside the athletics department. While it?s understandable that various investigations must run their courses and criminal and civil matters will take time to conclude, we do not believe that a wait-and?see approach is proper in this matter. As a ?rst measure, we request that Michigan State send information to the NCAA in a timely manner, to the attention of Vice President Jon Duncan, regarding any potential violations of NCAA legislation as a self-report as outlined above. This is your member obligation under NCAA constitution Article and Bylaw 19.2.2. National Collegiate Athletic Association Supporting student-athlete success on the ?eld, in the classroom and in life. Equal Opportunity/Af?rmative Action Employer Mr. Mark Hollis January 23, 2018 Page No. 2 This request is made with the understanding that there may be ongoing criminal or governmental investigations that take priority. Nonetheless, we expect to receive an expeditious response to the above requests. Sincere y, Oliver F.
