Expelled Gay Student Allowed To Finish Year
http://www.365gay.com/Newscon06/04/041906kyStudent.htm

The University of the Cumberlands will allow a student it expelled after he revealed he is gay to send in work to finish his courses and receive final grades, the student and his lawyer said Tuesday.

Jason Johnson, 20, and the school reached an agreement concerning his final transcript, according to Johnson and his lawyer, Don Waggener of Lexington.

Johnson was expelled April 6 after posting his sexual orientation on a Web site. The dean's list student received all Fs on his transcript when he was expelled. (story)

"This will preserve my academic record," he told the Lexington Herald-Leader Tuesday night.
