I think he should have a professionalism mark on his MSPE. That will basically kill any chance of a competitive specialty or program and probably his chances of matching at all. I think that’s sufficient.

If that's the goal, why not just expel him?

I think giving him a black mark is different than expulsion. The black mark basically says to the programs that this person was academically sound but did something that was highly questionable. If you want to take a chance on him, that’s on you. Expulsion doesn’t even give him the chance to grow or learn from his mistake.

edit: I think expulsion is really for like you actually harmed or put someone at a real risk of harm by going against the rules, or for any sort of racist etc behavior.
