LOS ANGELES — The president of the University of Southern California has agreed to step down amid a raging sex scandal involving a university gynecologist who is accused of conducting inappropriate exams for decades, the chairman of the school’s board of trustees said Friday. “We have heard the message that something is broken and that urgent and profound actions are needed,” Caruso said. The staff member alleged that Tyndall made inappropriate comments to a patient in front of medical assistants. The university said it has previously reviewed complaints that Tyndall made racially inappropriate comments. A spokesman for USC said the university had no further comment.
