Opinion: Ohio Revised Code states that the Youngstown State University Board of Trustees “shall do all things necessary for the creation, proper maintenance, and successful continuous operation of the university.” As members of the YSU Board of Trustees we take that charge and our fiduciary responsibility seriously, and that is why we are writing this letter today.
