CONCORD A Black Dartmouth College football player who was suspended for two years after the college concluded he sexually assaulted a fellow student claims the investigation was biased and racist, according to a lawsuit he filed this week.
The suit, filed Monday in U.S. District Court in New Hampshire, accuses the college of several offenses including racial discrimination, breach of contract and negligence related to the investigation, which began last winter. The suit does not name the student, referring to him only as John Doe, but says that he is from Ohio and is a defensive lineman on the Dartmouth football team.
