The school also received approval of a reorganization plan, which meant it could begin to spend some $13 million of state money that was put on hold after TSU's financial problems became public.
Lewis said he is grateful the settlement of the cases has resulted in some restitution for the school.
``We feel good about any money that we receive,'' he said.
Junior Trey Barton said that although students were initially upset with the president's mishandling of funds, he is happy with its new leadership.
``It bothered me last year, but now we have a new president that's taking care of keeping order,'' Barton said. ``Back then it was a big deal. But it already blew over.''
