OSU President Remains Mum About Marching Band Scandal

WCBE Files

Former Ohio State University marching band director Jon Waters is considering filing a lawsuit against the school. Waters' attorney says there are several legal issues involved in the firing of his client for not stopping a sexualized band culture, including denial of due-process rights. University president Michael Drake brushed off reporters' questions about the scandal yesterday following his appearance at a campus event. Drake announced the firing last month in a statement the university posted online.

Jim has been with WCBE since 1996. Before that he worked as a reporter at another Columbus radio station, and for three newspapers in Southwest Florida.
