A University of North Dakota student was kicked out of school and forbidden from stepping on campus for three years as part of an alleged sexual assault.

The student wasn't charged, but the school won't readmit the student. The alleged victim faces an arrest warrant for making a false report and fled the state. The AP won't name her. I think the AP has a duty to name the woman in the case since the male's name is out there.

Understandable that they booted him out before the criminal investigation was completed. They have to ensure that the campus is safe.

But once he was exonerated, there's no excuse why they didn't lift the punishment.

I think said man will eventually own said university in the settlement.

Only one man owns that university. His name is Ralph Engelstad and he's dead.
 
I think the student has a major legal case, especially given that it's a public university. So what all did they go on, just hearsay and rumors from some woman with nothing to back it up?

It's not hearsay and rumors if the woman filed a police report.
 
Don't side with this guy if you blasted Roethlisberger.

This is why you wait for at least and arrest and a charge from the police.

And run the woman's name. She committed a crime.

Don't care. If journalists cannot see when the world wears blinders, then this industry, and country, is in a lot of trouble.
 
If she filed a false police report, she needs to be named. I think he has a big time case against UND.

Which, apparently, turned out to be false.
 
Being a ND journalist with a column on Wednesday ... thanks for something local to write on. For some reason this isn't big news here and thus I didn't hear about it until seeing this thread. I am on the opposite side of the state though and it's a big state.
