Key Information

Timothy M. Curley (born April 28, 1954) is a former athletic director for Penn State University.

Career

[edit]

Curley was appointed athletic director on December 30, 1993. He succeeded Jim Tarman, for whom he had served as an assistant. During his 18 years as athletic director, Penn State won 18 national championships and 64 Big Ten titles.[1]

Curley drew criticism for his handling of allegations of anti-gay discrimination by Penn State women's basketball coach Rene Portland. Curley and Portland were sued by a former player who alleged that Portland had actively discriminated against players who were lesbian or perceived to be lesbian.[2] Portland was ultimately fined by the university after the allegations came to light.[3]

Child sex abuse scandal

[edit]
Main article: Penn State child sex abuse scandal

In 2011, former Penn State football assistant coach Jerry Sandusky was arrested and indicted on 40 counts of child molestation dating back to 1994. During the grand jury investigation, Curley had testified as to his awareness of a 2002 incident that occurred in the Penn State football locker room, in which assistant coach Mike McQueary testified he witnessed Sandusky raping a 10-year-old boy in the shower.[4] McQueary notified head coach Joe Paterno, who brought the matter to Curley's attention.

Curley testified that he had only been told that Sandusky was "horsing around" with the boy. Curley, along with Penn State Vice President Gary Schultz, did not report the incident to police, and their discipline of Sandusky was limited to restricting him from bringing underage children to campus.

The grand jury investigating Sandusky ultimately did not find Curley's testimony credible, and indicted him and Schultz for perjury and for failing to report possible abuse.[5] After the indictment, Curley and Schultz were suspended from their duties. University President Graham Spanier issued a statement expressing support for both men that said: "Tim Curley and Gary Schultz operate at the highest levels of honesty, integrity and compassion."[6] Spanier was forced to resign by the school's Board of Trustees on November 9, 2011, in part because of this statement.[7][8]

The report of an independent investigation conducted by former FBI director Louis Freeh and his firm stated that Curley, along with Schultz, Spanier and Paterno, had knowledge of past abuse allegations against Sandusky and concealed them, concluding that they "failed to protect against a child sexual predator harming children for over a decade".[9][10]

Curley was placed on administrative leave pending trial.[11] On October 16, 2012, Penn State announced it would not renew Curley's contract when it expired in June 2013.[12]

On November 1, 2012, Pennsylvania Attorney General Linda Kelly announced that a grand jury had returned a superseding indictment against Curley and Schultz. The indictment added additional charges of child endangerment, obstruction of justice and conspiracy. Spanier was also indicted for allegedly covering up Sandusky's crimes.[13]

On July 30, 2013, Curley was ordered by Judge William Wenner to stand trial on charges accusing them of a cover-up.[14]

On March 13, 2017, Curley and Schultz each pled guilty to child endangerment charges in exchange for the dismissal of the conspiracy charges against them.[15] Both men, however, later testified against Spanier, who, in a split verdict, was convicted of one charge of child endangerment, but also acquitted of the charge of conspiracy and another charge of child endangerment as well.[16]

On June 3, 2017, Curley was sentenced to a 7- to 23-month jail term, with the last four months of his sentence being served on house arrest. He also received two years of probation and a $5,000 fine. The judge gave Curley the harshest sentence out of the three defendants. Judge John Boccabella was skeptical of Curley's testimony during Spanier's trial when he could not recall conversations related to the decision on to inform authorities about Sandusky's behavior. Boccabella also pointed out that he "probably made the most glaring error" due to his control of the football program.[17] He began serving his sentence on July 15,[18] and was released from jail on October 9.[19]

Personal Background

Early Life and Family

Timothy Curley was born in , and raised in a household situated across the street from New Beaver Field, the original stadium that preceded the modern at . This proximity to the university's athletic facilities exposed him to from a young age, as he sold game programs and served as a batboy during events. Curley grew up as one of six sons to parents Sr. and Florence Curley in the tight-knit, university-centric community of State College. His mother's notes her long-term residence there after earlier roots in St. Mary's, Pennsylvania, reflecting a embedded in the region's sports-oriented environment. provide scant additional details on his siblings' or parents' backgrounds, with no verifiable accounts of direct familial involvement in athletics prior to Curley's own participation. These early experiences in a college town, surrounded by Nittany Lions athletics, demonstrably shaped Curley's affinity for sports administration, though empirical evidence of specific influences remains tied to his documented childhood activities rather than broader speculation.

Education

Timothy Curley received a in health and from in 1976. Immediately after graduation, he joined the university's athletic staff as a graduate assistant on the football coaching team, beginning his involvement in Penn State's sports programs.

Professional Career

Early Roles at Penn State

Timothy Curley joined the Penn State athletic staff as a football coach immediately after earning his bachelor's degree in 1976. In this entry-level position under head coach , Curley supported coaching operations, including player development and program logistics during the late , a period when Penn State football achieved consistent bowl appearances, such as the 1977 Cotton Bowl victory over . By 1978, Curley transitioned to the of Paterno's first full-time recruiting coordinator, focusing on talent identification, , and efforts to bolster the Nittany Lions' roster. This position marked his shift toward administrative duties within the football program, contributing to roster stability amid competitive Big Ten scheduling; for instance, the 1978 and 1979 seasons saw undefeated regular seasons and wins, supported by incoming recruits. In 1982, Curley advanced to assistant , handling broader operational responsibilities such as compliance and across Penn State athletics. This role involved overseeing daily administrative functions that ensured program adherence to NCAA regulations during a decade of expansion, including facilities upgrades and sustained football competitiveness, exemplified by the 1982 national championship season.

Administrative Advancement

Curley joined Penn State's athletic department in 1981 as assistant , where he supported operational functions under director Jim Tarman. In this role, he contributed to departmental administration during a period of expanding intercollegiate programs, including oversight of compliance and amid growing enrollment in varsity sports. Promoted to associate athletic director in 1983, Curley took on expanded responsibilities in budgeting, , and strategic planning, helping to stabilize finances as Penn State's athletic budget grew from supporting 29 varsity teams. By 1990, as Tarman's key deputy, he played a central role in negotiations for Penn State's entry into the , facilitating academic and athletic alignment that boosted revenue potential through increased media rights and competitive scheduling. These efforts underscored merit-based progression, evidenced by sustained NCAA compliance and program expansion without major violations prior to the 1990s. Curley's administrative ascent culminated in his appointment as interim on December 30, 1993, succeeding Tarman, followed by confirmation as permanent director in 1994. This transition reflected institutional recognition of his track record in fostering operational efficiency, with Penn State's athletic facilities undergoing upgrades and team participation rates increasing steadily through the early .

Tenure as Athletic Director

Timothy Curley was appointed as the Director of Athletics at on December 30, 1993, succeeding James Tarman. In this role, he managed a department encompassing 29 varsity sports programs, including oversight of the football team under longtime head coach , as well as men's and , wrestling, , and . Curley's administration emphasized fiscal responsibility and competitive performance within the framework, where Penn State had integrated its programs starting in the early . During Curley's tenure, Penn State athletics recorded notable competitive successes, securing 21 NCAA team championships across various sports and 64 titles. The football program, a of the department, maintained consistent and conference contention, contributing to the university's reputation for broad-based excellence in intercollegiate competition. These outcomes reflected stable operational management amid rising costs in college athletics, with gate receipts serving as the primary driver for funding operations and scholarships. Curley prioritized infrastructure development to support athletic programs, overseeing expansions such as the 2001 addition to , which increased seating capacity and enhanced fan amenities. Other initiatives included the construction of new facilities for (Medlar Field at Lubrano Park), , and a clubhouse, alongside renovations to the Rec Hall wrestling venue and other multipurpose spaces. These projects aimed to modernize aging infrastructure while aligning with Big Ten standards for competitive venues.

Toner Award for Distinguished Achievement in 2011, highlighting effective governance and compliance with NCAA regulations during a period of minimal major infractions. Curley navigated routine challenges like scheduling and conference alignments without significant disruptions, fostering sustained program stability.

Involvement in the Jerry Sandusky Investigation

Eyewitness Report and Initial Actions

On the evening of February 9, 2001, Penn State football coach entered the locker room showers in the Lasch Football Building and observed , a retired assistant coach, naked with a boy estimated to be 10-12 years old, engaging in what McQueary later described in testimony as forceful sexual activity, including possible . McQueary immediately left the area without intervening and reported the incident to the next morning, February 10, 2001, conveying that he had witnessed something sexual between Sandusky and the boy. Paterno contacted Timothy Curley on February 11, 2001, relaying McQueary's account in vague terms, describing it as involving Sandusky and a young boy in the shower in a way that made McQueary uncomfortable, without specifying details of . Curley then met with Paterno to discuss the report and notified university president and senior vice president for finance and business Gary Schultz of the allegation. In initial consultations among Curley, Spanier, and Schultz on February 12, 2001, the administrators determined that the reported conduct did not clearly indicate child abuse warranting immediate external reporting, based on their interpretation of McQueary's relayed description as possible "horseplay" and advice from university general counsel Caroline Muth that no legal duty to report existed absent confirmed harm. They opted instead to directly inform Sandusky of the university's concerns, with Curley contacting him by phone and arranging a meeting where Sandusky was instructed not to bring children into campus facilities or shower with them, while allowing him continued access to the locker room for workouts.

Consultations and Reporting Decisions

Following the report from assistant football coach via head coach on , 2001, Timothy Curley conferred with senior for business and finance Gary the next day. Schultz contacted Penn State University Police Chief Thomas Harmon to confirm the existence and status of the 1998 investigation file related to a prior incident involving Jerry , verifying that it had been closed without charges after consultations with Centre County District Attorney Ray and a state Department of Public Welfare review. No formal report of the 2001 shower incident was filed with university police at that time, despite later testimony by Curley and Schultz asserting that they had notified university authorities internally. Schultz also consulted Penn State's general counsel, Cynthia Baldwin, around late February 2001, as evidenced by his phone records logging a call on February 28 regarding "child abuse" and subsequent discussions on reporting obligations. Baldwin advised on the matter, though details of the conversation remain undocumented in public records beyond these logs and later disciplinary proceedings noting the consultation occurred in the context of potential child abuse reporting. Under Pennsylvania's Child Protective Services Law as it stood in 2001 (23 Pa.C.S. §§ 6301 et seq.), university administrators like Curley and Schultz were not classified as mandated reporters required to notify external child welfare agencies such as county children and youth services; the law primarily obligated professionals like teachers, doctors, and certain school employees to report suspicions directly to protective services or law enforcement, with no explicit mandate extending to higher education administrative roles absent direct involvement with minors in a supervisory capacity. Subsequent internal communications, including emails between Curley and dated February 27, 2001, detailed McQueary's eyewitness account of Sandusky and a prepubescent boy in the Lasch Football Building showers, with Curley noting he had spoken to McQueary for clarification and reviewed the 1998 police report. responded indicating time to review the matter without urgency. By March 6, 2001, Curley emailed and university president outlining steps taken: informing Sandusky of the allegation, advising him against showering or changing with young boys, restricting his after-hours access to university facilities, and planning further discipline, all documented to demonstrate compliance with internal protocols. These memos emphasized containment within the university structure, forgoing external child welfare notification consistent with the absence of a legal mandate for such action at the time.

Internal Communications

Following the 2001 report from assistant coach regarding Jerry Sandusky's actions in a facility, Penn State administrators Timothy Curley, Gary Schultz, and exchanged communications outlining informal measures to limit Sandusky's interactions with children on , but these were not enforced through monitoring or formal policy. On , 2001, Curley met directly with Sandusky, conveying discomfort over the incident and prohibiting him from bringing children into athletic facilities while also notifying Sandusky's charity of the concerns. Curley followed up on March 19, 2001, by briefing leadership, who characterized the matter as a "non-incident" but opted to restrict Sandusky from involving children in -based charity activities to mitigate potential publicity risks. Despite these discussions, internal records indicate no subsequent communications among Curley, Schultz, and Spanier established oversight mechanisms to verify Sandusky's compliance or restrict his broader access to university facilities, where he retained privileges including keys to the Lasch Football Building until November 2011. In September 2011, Curley authorized the reinstatement of Sandusky's Club season tickets, reversing a prior administrative deletion without documented consultation on prior restrictions. The administrators withheld details of the 2001 incident and their response from the Penn State Board of Trustees, with Spanier later citing the university's peripheral role in the ongoing investigation as rationale for limited disclosure in 2011 communications. Documented internal interactions post-2001 reflect no additional eyewitness reports of Sandusky's conduct shared among senior administrators until his 2011 arrest, consistent with findings that highlighted the absence of proactive internal escalation or protective measures for children. Sandusky continued facilitating youth camps at Penn State satellite campuses, such as Behrend and Harrisburg, from 2000 to 2008 without required memoranda of agreement or oversight tied to the 2001 restrictions.

Indictments and Charges

On November 7, 2011, a investigating recommended criminal charges against Timothy Curley, then Penn State's , for his role in handling a 2001 eyewitness report of in a with a young boy; the filed a criminal complaint the following day. The charges stemmed from Curley's December 16, 2010, before the , in which he falsely stated under oath that graduate assistant had reported only "horsing around" rather than a potential , despite internal evidence including McQueary's contemporaneous account and Curley's own emails indicating awareness of inappropriate conduct. Specifically, Curley faced one count of perjury for this misrepresentation. Curley was also indicted on one count of failure to report suspected under Pennsylvania's mandatory reporting law (18 Pa.C.S. § 4311), which requires officials to notify authorities of credible suspicions of abuse within 48 hours, and one count of endangering the welfare of children (18 Pa.C.S. § 4304), based on allegations that he and senior vice president Gary Schultz chose not to alert or police after the 2001 incident, instead opting for internal measures like barring Sandusky from bringing children to campus facilities. These charges were linked to the broader context of Sandusky's November 5, 2011, indictment on 40 counts of involuntary deviate sexual intercourse, corruption of minors, and related offenses involving eight victims from 1994 to 2009, as detailed in the grand jury presentment. In December 2011, the charges against Curley were amended to include conspiracy (18 Pa.C.S. § 903) to commit perjury, failure to report, and endangering, reflecting prosecutors' view of coordinated efforts among administrators to withhold information from investigators. The evidentiary basis included documented communications, such as Curley's November 2001 notes and emails with Schultz and president Graham Spanier, which contradicted their public and testimonial denials of knowledge regarding the severity of McQueary's report.

Pre-Trial Developments

Curley was arraigned on November 2, 2012, alongside former Penn State vice president Gary Schultz, on amended charges including , failure to report suspected , and endangerment of children stemming from their handling of a 2001 eyewitness report involving . The charges alleged that Curley and others had concealed information from investigators, leading to his release on $75,000 unsecured following the hearing. Defense attorneys for Curley filed pre-trial motions challenging the admissibility of testimony from Cynthia Baldwin, Penn State's former , asserting that her statements violated attorney-client privilege since she had advised Curley during the investigation. In rulings affirmed on appeal, Dauphin County Judge John Foradora denied the motions to suppress, determining that Baldwin represented the university corporately rather than Curley personally, thus permitting her testimony without privilege breach. Prosecutors had added to commit counts partly based on Baldwin's disclosures, which the defense sought to quash as tainted. On January 22, 2016, the Pennsylvania Superior Court dismissed multiple charges against Curley, including one count of obstruction of justice and its related conspiracy charge, ruling that the evidence did not support those elements beyond the remaining endangerment and failure-to-report offenses. The court upheld the dismissal in April 2016 against prosecutorial appeals, narrowing the case while leaving intact the core child endangerment charge. A count against Curley was separately dismissed on October 13, 2016, by the trial court, further refining the indictment ahead of resolution.

Plea and Sentencing

On March 13, 2017, Curley entered a guilty plea to one count of child endangerment in , stemming from his handling of a 2001 eyewitness report of Jerry Sandusky's abuse of a in a Penn State shower facility; in exchange, prosecutors dropped three felony counts of child endangerment and one count of . Curley's sentencing occurred on June 2, 2017, before Judge , who imposed a term of 7 to 23 months' incarceration, with a minimum of three months served in county jail followed by for the remainder, along with four years' , a $5,000 fine, and 65 hours of . This resolution aligned with plea outcomes for co-defendants Gary Schultz, who received 6 to 23 months with two months in jail on the same charge, and , convicted by jury of a single count and later sentenced to 4 to 12 months with two months in jail; initial felony indictments against all three, issued in 2011 and influenced by the 2012 Freeh report's findings on institutional failures, had been pared down through negotiations.

Incarceration and Release

Curley commenced serving his sentence of seven to 23 months' incarceration on July 15, 2017, at the Centre County Correctional Facility, where he was eligible for work release. He was released from the facility on October 3, 2017, after serving approximately three months. Upon release, Curley began a four-month period of , which included electronic monitoring as a condition of his sentence. This was followed by two years of , during which no violations were reported in court records.

Analyses and Viewpoints

Criticisms of Administrative Handling

The 2012 Freeh Report, an independent investigation commissioned by Penn State University, concluded that Timothy Curley, along with other senior administrators, actively concealed critical facts about Jerry Sandusky's from authorities, boards, and the university community, prioritizing the football program's reputation over victim safety. The report cited emails from 1998 and , including Curley's communications recommending limited internal discipline for Sandusky—such as barring him from bringing children to facilities—rather than notifying or child welfare agencies, actions that allegedly perpetuated Sandusky's access to potential victims on . Prosecutors echoed these findings in indictments, portraying Curley's failure to report the 2001 eyewitness account from assistant coach as a deliberate choice to shield institutional interests. Media coverage in late 2011 amplified narratives of administrative complicity, framing Curley's and Penn State's inaction as enabling Sandusky's crimes by allowing him continued involvement with charity and university facilities. Outlets drew parallels to institutional cover-ups in the scandal, with reports highlighting how Curley's decisions post-2001 incident contributed to at least 10 additional alleged victims emerging between 2001 and 2008. Coverage emphasized a culture of deference to football prestige, accusing Curley of fostering an environment where child protection yielded to reputational concerns, as evidenced by his emails expressing worry over "bad PR" from external reporting. These critiques manifested in quantifiable institutional penalties, including the NCAA's July sanctions against Penn State: a $60 million fine (equivalent to one year's football revenue), vacation of 112 wins from 1998 to 2011 (spanning Curley's tenure as ), a four-year postseason ban, and scholarship reductions, all predicated on the Freeh Report's assessment of leadership failures. The sanctions, imposed without traditional , were partially vacated in 2015 after review revealed procedural irregularities, underscoring perceptions of punitive overreach in response to the administrative lapses attributed to Curley and others.

Defenses and Contextual Factors

Defenders of Curley, including his legal team, have maintained that the 2001 report of the incident witnessed by was relayed to Penn State University Police, fulfilling the mandated reporting obligations under Pennsylvania's Child Protective Services Law (23 Pa.C.S. § 6313) as it existed at the time, which permitted oral and written reports of suspected to either the county children and youth agency or authorities without specifying external agencies exclusively. University police, as a certified entity, conducted an investigation, interviewed Sandusky on May 12, 2001, and closed the case absent identified victims or further evidence, a decision administrators relied upon as indicating no prosecutable offense. Critiques of the 2012 Freeh Report, such as the 2013 analysis by former U.S. and other experts commissioned by the Paterno family, have highlighted its failure to adequately consider exculpatory materials, including contemporaneous emails showing Curley and colleagues sought guidance from university general counsel on handling the internal police referral rather than bypassing established procedures. These reviews argue the Freeh investigation selectively emphasized inculpatory interpretations while disregarding evidence of , such as follow-up inquiries to police, thereby overstating administrative without accounting for legal ambiguities in reporting protocols prior to post-2011 legislative expansions. Contextual factors cited in Curley's defense include Sandusky's status post-1999 retirement from Penn State coaching, during which his interactions with children occurred primarily through the independent charity, limiting the university's direct oversight and foreseeability of risks absent a established pattern of convictions—none existed prior to 2012 despite earlier investigations like the 1998 incident that yielded no charges. Supporters, including appellate outcomes, have pointed to prosecutorial overreach in initial felony indictments for failure to report and , as clarified by the 2013 ruling in Commonwealth v. Lynn, which required proof of to conceal rather than mere non-reporting, leading to Curley's 2017 plea reduction to a single count of child endangerment without admission of felonious .

Broader Implications for Institutional Accountability

The Sandusky , encompassing Curley's administrative role, catalyzed reforms in protocols for reporting suspected . In response, Penn State implemented 119 specific recommendations by 2013, including expanded mandatory training, creation of a office, and streamlined hotlines for misconduct reports to prioritize victim and transparency. Nationally, the case influenced expansions in mandatory reporting laws; , for instance, broadened requirements in 2014 to compel more professionals, such as coaches and administrators, to report suspicions immediately, aiming to address systemic delays in institutional responses. Enforcement of the intensified as well, with the U.S. Department of Education imposing a record $2.4 million fine on Penn State in November 2016 for failing to disclose 2011 crimes in annual security reports, prompting universities nationwide to enhance compliance training and data tracking for sex offenses. Administrative decisions in the case have sparked debates on , where post-scandal knowledge colors evaluations of contemporaneous actions. The 2012 Freeh Report attributed concealment to Penn State leaders, but critiques, including a 2013 independent review by former U.S. Dick , contend it retroactively imposed modern standards on ambiguous 2001 eyewitness accounts, ignoring evidence that officials consulted legal counsel and deferred to police without clear indicators of criminality at the time. Data from analogous cases, such as university handling of complaints, reveal inconsistent outcomes: a 2018 analysis of over 300 institutions found that 40% faced sanctions for delayed reporting despite internal investigations, while others avoided penalties through similar deference to authorities, highlighting how outcome knowledge amplifies perceived over real-time causal uncertainties. Long-term effects on Penn State athletics underscored precedents for measured accountability amid public pressure. The NCAA's initial sanctions—a $60 million fine, four-year postseason ban, and scholarship cuts—were progressively reversed: scholarships restored in 2013, the bowl ban lifted in 2014, and 112 vacated wins reinstated in January 2015, citing the program's demonstrated reforms and lack of ongoing violations. These adjustments, alongside board-mandated leadership transitions to enforce independent oversight, reflect critiques that early penalties stemmed from media-fueled narratives equating institutional loyalty with complicity, as subsequent reviews found no empirical basis for a university-wide beyond individual reporting lapses. The episode established causal benchmarks for sanctions, prioritizing verifiable patterns of evasion over speculative intent, influencing how subsequent athletic departments balance program integrity with external scrutiny.
