Of the 80 former students who filed complaints, all were men at the time, with one now identifying as female and with 76 identifying as gay or bisexual. The former students allege that Kelly also discriminated against them based on their sexual orientation and gender, according to attorneys representing the 80 former students. The University of Southern California says it has reached a settlement with 80 former students who allege they were all sexually abused by a former campus doctor over the course of two decades.ĭennis Kelly, a former campus physician, left USC in 2018, and the following year, six male graduates came forward with allegations that Kelly engaged in inappropriate sexual conduct during appointments, such as rectal examinations.
