I want to sue a houston public college for libel.
How did this happen ?
I want to know if the college is exempt from suit.
This happened in the fall lf 2000. I had taken a photography class and was allowed to do an assignment anyway i wished. On the last day of class i showed my assignment to the class. My assignment consisted of various prints some of which came from the trash can.
After the presentation the professor said nothing to me.
Then around xmas i recieved a written letter that i would be charged with academic dishonesty because i used the work of another. There was a hearing which consisted of 3 faculty and 4 students. I was found guilty. Recieved and f in the course and suspended from the college.
But there were no witnesses who came forth and claimed any or part of my work as theirs. I did site my source as the trash can but they refused to listen. Basically the college was unable to prove that i copied anybody's work even though i admitted to coping a picture from the trashcan.
I feel as though my reputation has been smeared and i want to know if i can sue this college for libel.
