CRITERIA FOR COURT REVIEW OF THE EXPULSION OF A STUDENT FROM A PRIVATE COLLEGE EXPLAINED.

The Second Department, upholding the expulsion of a student from a private college (Pratt Institute) based upon allegations of sexual harassment, explained the relevant court-review criteria:

​

“[P]rivate schools are afforded broad discretion in conducting their programs, including decisions involving the discipline, suspension and expulsion of their students” … . “Judicial review of the actions of a private school in disciplinary matters is limited to a determination as to whether the school acted arbitrarily and capriciously, or whether it substantially complied with its own rules and regulations” … . Here, contrary to the petitioner’s contention, Pratt Institute informed him of the specific allegations against him, and substantially complied with its sexual harassment policy … . Matter of Ibe v Pratt Inst., 2017 NY Slip Op 04443, 2nd Dept 6-7-17
