Jason Johnson will finish up his current course load at the University of the Cumberlands and receive final grades for this semester:

Johnson was expelled April 6 after posting his sexual orientation on a Web site. The dean’s list student received all Fs on his transcript when he was expelled.

“This will preserve my academic record,” he told the Lexington Herald-Leader in a story posted on the newspaper’s Web site.

Under the agreement, Johnson relinquishes his right to sue the university for damages but retains his right to file complaints with the U.S. Department of Education and the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, the regional accrediting agency.

After finishing up this semester, Jason says he plans to transfer to Eastern Kentucky University.
