[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP people are being mean as usual. You don’t really know what happened but you will find out when you get there. I feel for your son. I’m very sorry you are going through this. [/quote]

You might want to bring it up in university court.  It sounds like the other kid used excessive force and needs counseling, at the very last, to control his temper.  I would suggest suspension.  No words or actions necessitate breaking someone's jaw. Have you talked to a lawyer in that geographical area yet?  Might be worth getting a couple of legal opinions.  You do not want that other kid thinking it is okay to break people's jaws - his parents failed him. If he thinks he can break people's jaws, what could possibly be next.  He needs help. This isn't preschool, it's college - you don't go around beating people up. [/quote]

This +1000.  Incident should be handled by school's admin structure (RA, dean of students, uni court).  Whatever your son's role in this, it does seem like the other kid's reaction was over the top.  And 18 yo boys do very stupid things.  Go see your son.  Help him with medical appointments, etc.  Broken jaws are no fun (I broke mine at 15 after falling off a bike); depending on the treaments used, he may have limited ability to talk and to eat.  Make sure he can find liquid and soft foods.  
Good luck.[/quote]
