Another case study that white knighting doesn't pay:

Dalhousie student who was part of controversial online group suspended over just one Facebook like: lawyer

Quote:

HALIFAX — A dentistry student who was part of a Facebook page that contained sexually violent content about female classmates was suspended largely because he clicked the “Like” button on one suggestive photograph, his lawyers said Wednesday.

Quote:

Millet’s legal team, including Bruce MacIntosh, also took issue with the disciplinary process the university began after the Facebook page came to light in December and stunned the public with its content.

Bruce MacIntosh alleged that the university hasn’t shared information about the case against Millet, has held closed-door sessions to decide his fate and didn’t allow Tuesday’s in-camera hearing to be recorded. They say they asked for an adjournment after the committee rejected their request that Millet’s suspension be lifted and that his record expunged.

Quote:

“The process is irretrievably broken,” Bruce MacIntosh said, adding that they have advised Millet to participate in the disciplinary hearing only if the school’s senate appoints a new arbitrator.

“If it doesn’t, there’s a Supreme Court of Nova Scotia down the lane that I think would be very interested in looking at the way this has unfolded.”

The lawyers contend Millet was part of the group but helped expose it by revealing it to one of the women featured in a sexist post.
