Grove City College officials say no deal is in place that assures John Gechter will graduate from the school. Gechter withdrew last week after the college suspended him for working in the pornography industry. Gechter was discovered by a fellow student and school administrators appearing in online gay pornography. The conservative Christian school suspended Gechter for behavior that conflicts with the student code of conduct. Gechter led a secret life for two years, flying to the west coast on weekends to work in porn videos designed for internet audiences.
In an interview with our newsroom last week, Gechter said he was just a couple of classes short of graduation. GCC says in a news release that Gechter can follow the established policy and reapply. That would then trigger the appeal process of his suspension. If the appeal is to be successful, the school maintains that requirements would have to bet met which include adhering to the standards of conduct.
