A SUNY Purchase sophomore who removed an administrator's "We Stand With Israel" banners from their office window sued the school last month, seeking to overturn his subsequent suspension.

Cesar Paul of Westchester County claims in the suit that administrator Paul Nicholson attacked him after Paul took down two pro-Israel banners hanging from his office.
