OU Student ‘Hot For Teacher’ Lawsuit Dismissed By Federal Judge (UPDATE)

Joseph Corlett, a 57-year-old college student suspended for writing an essay called 'Hot for Teacher,' lost his $2.2 million first and 14th amendment lawsuit against Oakland University (OU). Corlett filed the lawsuit against the university alleging that his free-speech rights were violated after he was suspended for writing about his sexual attraction to a teacher in a class journal in 2011.
