The student, who was also accused of sexually assaulting two other women, claimed the university discriminated against him.

Nungesser was alleging that the school had violated his Title IX rights.

Paul Nungesser, the man who allegedly raped recent Columbia graduate and tough-as-nails mattress carrier Emma Sulkowicz, has accused the university of failing to protect him from Sulkowicz's “gender based anti-male discriminatory harassment campaign.
