A federal judge on Tuesday threw out a lawsuit by a Columbia University student who alleged the institution has an “anti-male” bias and was pressured by campus women’s groups into suspending him after a female student he had a fling with claimed it wasn’t consensual.
Manhattan Judge Jesse Furman sided with Columbia University officials, saying the suit filed last year by the unnamed student failed to provide proof the plaintiff was discriminated against and suspended because he’s a man.
“There are simply no factual allegations that give rise to a plausible inference that Plaintiff was mistreated because of (rather than in spite of) his sex,” Furman wrote.
The student’s lawyer could not be reached for comment.
