A group of Columbia University students accused of selling drugs on the Ivy League school’s New York campus rejected plea deals offered by prosecutors at a court hearing in state Supreme Court.

Harrison David, 20, of Wrentham, Massachusetts, today rejected an offer to plead guilty to criminal sale of a controlled substance, in exchange for one year in prison and two years’ probation. David faces as long as 10 years in prison if convicted of the most serious charge, said his attorney, Matthew Myers.
