In 2009, Shaw had been accused of sexually fondling more than a dozen female athletes, and the university investigated and quietly cleared him of all wrongdoing, the suit says. But about eight years later, those athletes and others reported to Sage Hopkins, SJSU’s women’s swimming and diving coach, that Shaw’s abuse was ongoing and that the university’s investigation was faulty.
Hopkins composed a lengthy dossier with his own findings, calling out Athletic Director Marie Tuite’s role in covering up Shaw’s abuse, and SJSU launched a new investigation in 2020, the suit says.
O’Brien alleges that during the new investigation, Tuite directed him to discipline Hopkins without legitimate cause. O’Brien believed the directive was retaliatory against Hopkins and could compromise the investigation, including Tuite’s role in it. O’Brien brought his concerns to SJSU, and nothing was done, the suit says.

San Diego State University is seeking to shave hundreds of millions of dollars off development costs associated with the office portion of its planned Mission Valley campus.
The school, through a formal solicitation process, is currently in search of an architectural firm to come up with alternative designs for what’s being referred to as the “Innovation District,” or the area of the 135-acre site reserved for office, research and educational uses. Bidders are being asked to reconfigure the layout of 13 buildings and 5,000 parking spaces located south of the in-progress Aztec Stadium, as the institution believes the buildings no longer require a parking platform to lift them out of the site’s floodplain.

It’s been more than a week since Bob Linscheid was named the Silicon Valley Organization’s interim CEO and he’s not wasting any time repairing the business organization’s stained reputation.
“I’ve been pretty much 100% SVO. In fact, my hours are insane. My wife wonders if I’m ever gonna come out of this room,” Linscheid told San José Spotlight. “I’m not going to work Christmas Eve or Christmas, but I’ll work every other day this year.”
