OSU Buildings May Lose Wexner Name as ONA Demands Action

The Ohio Nurses Association is pressuring Ohio State University to remove Les Wexner’s name from campus buildings, citing a newly unredacted 2019 FBI document that lists him as a “co-conspirator” in Jeffrey Epstein’s case. OSU has a naming-review procedure and is considering related requests, with ONA seeking a decision before the new University Hospital opens. Wexner has denied wrongdoing in relation to Epstein, saying he was duped and that he has since cut ties with Epstein. The university’s response to the call for removal has not been disclosed publicly.
