The male student claims he was falsely accused and is a victim of gender discrimination because the university forced him to undergo an allegedly bias-ridden investigation process before expelling him. His pleadings allow a plausible inference of discrimination and he properly alleges the board deprived him of his due process rights. The student seeks declaratory and injunctive relief to require the board to reverse the hearing’s outcome, restore his reputation, expunge and seal the disciplinary and dismissal records, destroy the female student’s complaint and return him to good standing, but the court does not rule on this yet.
