MSU faces huge payout risk in Nassar settlements
MSU could owe hundreds of millions to Nassar victims with estimates around 300 claimants. The university seeks a mediation backed by declining state aid and tuition revenue. Analysts note MSU's financial reserves and debt load, while lawmakers push to shield tuition funds from any settlements. Parents like Mark Thomas worry over how MSU will pay while students rely on degrees.
