Epstein Files Fallout Spreads to College Sports Buildings

After the Department of Justice released its latest tranche of Epstein documents in late January, many universities are facing a quandary regarding buildings across campus that bear the names of donors with ties to Epstein. Do they rename these buildings, which include football facilities at Ohio State and UCLA?

Front Office Sports reached out to four schools with sports and athletics facilities named after wealthy donors whose various ties to Jeffrey Epstein have been exposed: UCLA, Tufts, Ohio State, and Stony Brook. Tufts said it is “monitoring” the situation, and Ohio State detailed a lengthy consideration process the university is undergoing. Stony Brook and UCLA did not comment

Notably, none of the schools ruled out changing the names.
