What puzzles me is this public statement by the University: “In fact, over the 12-year span of Dr. Croce’s tenure at Ohio State, the university has invested significantly more in his research program than he has brought in from outside sources.”

This is offered to suggest that OSU’s investments in his research would somehow increase their motivation to investigate allegations against him. But this argument is completely facile. Investing a lot of OSU money in Croce would make the university LESS not MORE likely to investigate him so that they don’t lose returns on their giant investments.

OSU administrators: Please think these things through so as not to make OSU look even more dishonest (and/or illogical) in its response.
