  • Rep. Mikie Sherrill called POLITICO's reporting 'deeply disturbing'
  • and state lawmakers planned to discuss taking action.

The article from MSN discusses a controversy at Seton Hall University where President Joseph Nyre is facing calls to resign following a report that he was aware of sexual abuse allegations against a former priest, the Rev. Mark O’Malley, but failed to act appropriately. The report, released by the law firm King & Spalding, detailed that Nyre was informed of the allegations in 2020 but did not report them to law enforcement or the university's board until much later. This has led to significant backlash from the university community, including faculty, students, and alumni, who are demanding accountability and transparency. The situation has escalated to the point where the university's board of regents is now involved, and there is a growing call for Nyre's resignation due to his handling of the matter.
