COLUMBUS — The Ohio State University Board of Trustees has accepted President Walter “Ted” Carter Jr.’s resignation effective immediately after Carter disclosed he had an inappropriate relationship with someone seeking public resources to support her personal business.
The board said it appreciates the president’s contributions to the university over the last two years: The Education for Citizenship 2035 strategic plan, rising national rankings, growth in research expenditures and multiple new scholarship programs, along with the team the president assembled, have elevated Ohio State’s position as a national leader. Ohio State will share additional information about the transition in the coming days.
Carter issued the following statement.
“For personal reasons, I have made the difficult decision to resign from my role as president of The Ohio State University. I disclosed to the board of trustees that I made a mistake in allowing inappropriate access to Ohio State leadership.
“I believe we have made much progress during my time at Ohio State, and I’m sorry I’m not able to remain your president longer. The students, faculty and staff at this university are among the very best in the world, and the Education for Citizenship 2035 strategic plan has Ohio State poised to succeed for years to come.
“I have enjoyed a strong working relationship with the board of trustees, and I’m grateful for their support and guidance.
Carter was hired in 2023 as OSU’s 17th president after former president Kristina Johnson’s 2022 resignation. Ohio State has had three presidents since 2020 and one interim, and will now embark on another presidential search
Carter has a 38-year Navy career and formerly served as superintendent of the U.S. Naval Academy and former president of the University of Nebraska.
