Former student sues SMU over rape accusation

June 27, 2007
He was never charged in the alleged incident, but says accusation is still on his record.

A former student at Southern Methodist University in Dallas is suing the university in federal court. He contends that was unfairly suspended in 2006 after being accused of raping another student after a fraternity party. The student wants his record cleared and is asking for $750,000 in damages. He says that because he was flagged as a rapist on his transcript, he has been denied admission to other schools, and is unable to find a summer job and afraid to socialize.
