Per a statement from UI President Barbara Wilson:
"I appreciate the work and due diligence of the Iowa Attorney General and State Appeal Board. After listening to the concerns of Iowans, and in consultation with Board of Regents leadership, I have determined that the University of Iowa Department of Athletics will reimburse the state general fund for the $2 million due to the recent settlement. I am deeply committed to our students' success and well-being on and off the field of play."
The UI Department of Athletics is a self-sustaining unit that does not receive tuition revenue or taxpayer support.
