The guy needs to sue, it's a slam dunk. The crazy whore, but also reddit and the university, for obvious damages. It's a slam dunk case any law firm would take pro-bono.
The 10th circuit ruled on a similar case this summer. In that one, it was a high school student, and the post was real. They said he can sue the public school for 1st and 14th Amendment violations. I would assume if this guy went to a public university he would be good to go as well.
The bitch is hosed -- if she has any money he can take it. Maybe, maybe the parents? Not if she's 18 though. reddit is in the clear because it was a user post. The Uni -- IDK. I presume they never said anything about him. They are allowed to make these decisions without any reasoning, and I'm not really aware of any framework for second guessing them. If they are public or if you can make up some kind of civil rights claim, you might have something.
