DALLAS — After a two-hour meeting with Baylor officials on Tuesday, Big 12 officials said they are satisfied that the university’s administration is being transparent about its sexual assault scandal, and that the school is committed to being Title IX compliant in the future.

Baylor interim president David Garland, Baylor board of regents chairman Ronald Murff and regent David Harper met with the Big 12 board of directors on Tuesday to discuss the school’s handling of the sexual assault crisis.

“Questions and answers were received, and I would say we were very pleased,” said Oklahoma president David Boren, chairman of the Big 12 board of directors. “Overall, I would say they were very forthcoming today, and [have made a] strong commitment to the changes that are necessary to make a basic change in the culture on the campus and to have all of their students feel protected.”
