Baylor moves Ken Starr to chancellor, puts AD Ian McCaw on probation

With the release of Pepper Hamilton's investigation into Baylor's handling of sexual assaults, the school announced president Ken Starr will be moved to chancellor and athletic director Ian McCaw has been put on probation.

Reports had surfaced that Starr was going to be fired in the near future, but instead he was reassigned. Head coach Art Briles was dismissed earlier Thursday.

"We were horrified by the extent of these acts of sexual violence on our campus. This investigation revealed the University's mishandling of reports in what should have been a supportive, responsive and caring environment for students," said Richard Willis, chair of the Baylor Board of Regents. "The depth to which these acts occurred shocked and outraged us. Our students and their families deserve more, and we have committed our full attention to improving our processes, establishing accountability, and ensuring appropriate actions are taken to support former, current, and future students."

A section of the report highlighted one reason for the punishments.

Actions by University administrators directly discouraged some complainants from reporting or participating in student-conduct processes and in one instance constituted retaliation against a complainant for reporting sexual assault.
