Story here. Excerpt:

'One week after Xavier expelled sophomore Dez Wells for “a serious violation of the Code of Student Conduct,” Hamilton County prosecutor Joe Deters said no criminal charges would be filed against the basketball player.

A Hamilton County grand jury declined Tuesday to indict Wells on a charge of sexual assault.

Deters assigned senior assistant prosecutors to the case to review evidence and make a presentation to the grand jury, which they did Monday.
...
A Xavier University Conduct board made up of faculty, students and administrators determined that Wells was responsible for a serious violation of the code of conduct. The punishment for the violation, the school said in an Aug. 21 statement, is expulsion from the university.'
