Columbus, OH – Greg R. Lawson, a research fellow at The Buckeye Institute, commented after Governor Mike DeWine signed Ohio Senate Bill 1 into law.

“The Buckeye Institute applauds the Ohio General Assembly—especially Senator Jerry Cirino—and Governor Mike DeWine for passing and signing one of the most needed and sweeping reforms of Ohio’s higher education system in a quarter of a century. The policies in Senate Bill 1 will ensure a diverse intellectual environment for all students and accountability for faculty, and they will cut administrative bloat to focus universities on graduating students who are gainfully employed. These are much-needed reforms that were long overdue.”
