Yes, he did match Derm. Funny, this same article has been also posted in the Allopathic and even the Pre-Allopathic threads also. Quite the controversy, I must say.http://www.cleveland.com/metro/index.ssf/2014/06/medical_student_not_allowed_to.html

That hospital they list is his internship.I was curious myself, my brief search seems to show that hospital doesn't have a residency program. Plus no mention of a prelim year before his residency. My guess is that his intern year is at Riverside and there's a dermatology residency to come?
Well according to the court judgement the school was ordered to give him the MD. From the other thread: http://docs.justia.com/cases/federal/district-courts/ohio/ohndce/1:2014cv01046/209292/18. Quite the history.Yeah...it's all over the other boards -- saw it there after a friend brought it to my attention and figured I'd post the actual news article here to see if people had any thoughts. Personally, I think they should just let him graduate; he'll have other issues later. It's not up to CWRU to be all namby pamby.
I guess though CWRU was in a pickle...they probably would have been sued if they said something in the MSPE before he was actually convicted...ya know...the whole "innocent until proven guilty thing..."
I was going to say I'm actually more concerned for his female derm resident colleagues.I think the more shocking part of this story is that SUNY Downstate took a non-blonde non-female resident.

http://docs.justia.com/cases/federal/district-courts/ohio/ohndce/1:2014cv01046/209292/18I am surprised he matched into derm with two passes "with reservations" on his medicine subI, including a retake.
Wow, federal court? I'm surprised this close to July 1. I really thought Case would drop the case, but it looks like they were caught off guard not winning. So did he get his degree or not?CWRU filed an appeal.

The saga continues. How can you function as an effective resident knowing that your medical career could be wiped away at any time?
I'd say 75/25 that CWRU (won't) prevail, as the federal court is also in Ohio.Case Western Reserve University continues effort to revoke a doctor's degree in federal appeals court
This is an interesting case. I think there's a better than 50/50 chance that CWRU will prevail.
would paying for a degree automatically cause you to earn it? there is more to it than just academics.
Regardless, his image is tarnished. He's 'that guy'.
But here, the Court considers what discretion courts should give educational institutions when the educational institution judges character, not academic competence. So, this opinion first looks at how much discretion Case should receive when it’s professionalism judgment really examines ______’s character. The Court then considers whether Case abused that discretion when it refused ______ the diploma he had otherwise earned.
While Case should receive great discretion in judging academic standards, the determination of “professionalism” goes well beyond academic or patient related matters. The University’s definition of “professionalism” expresses a moral judgment, rather than an evaluation against a set of specialized criteria. Case describes professionalism in moral judgment terms: “ethical, honest, responsible and reliable behavior”; “respectful dialogue”; “personal limitations and biases”; and “professional and interpersonal behavior, sensitivity, sense of responsibility, and ethics, and the ability to conduct oneself suitably.”
