Agreement reached to end Pac-12 litigation
Dear OSU Community Members,
I am pleased to share that OSU, WSU and all 10 universities departing the Pac-12 Conference announced an agreement in principle that ends litigation, achieves a fair resolution for each university, supports our student-athletes, and promotes the continuing vitality of the Pac-12 Conference.
OSU and WSU joint statement regarding the agreement in principle recently announced by all 12 Pac-12 Conference universities
“In September, as the two remaining members of the Pac-12 Conference, Oregon State University and Washington State University were forced to act swiftly to protect the future viability of the Pac-12. Thanks to the determination and strength of Beaver Nation and Cougar Nation and the excellence of our student-athletes, coaches and staff, we are now closer to achieving our goal. Today’s news marks a huge victory for our universities and a significant step toward stabilizing the Pac-12 Conference and preserving its 108-year legacy.

Dear OSU Community Members:
Celebrating accomplishments and looking forward
Dear Colleagues,
