The University of Sydney has apologised after initially telling a transgender international student she could face expulsion or suspension after she allegedly wrote messages accusing the university of complicity in genocide in Gaza on campus whiteboards.
The university has since said the threat of expulsion or suspension, contained in a misconduct notice, was the result of an “administrative error”, though the misconduct proceedings are ongoing.
