They had a guest list and all my students were on it. This particular student was also on it, along with a note to exclude her specifically from entering the office.
Ah, I read your post as if you guys literally just showed up and expected to get in. Did they know you were all together?
I think you did the right thing by allowing the rest of the class to attend, but I feel terrible for your student, especially given the push for more women in engineering.

That is not at all clear from your post. It sounds like she just wasn't on the list at all.
This. I think you may want to add that detail to your post. It's really important context.
Is there some reason why they couldn't tell you in advance that there would be a problem with this student, rather than waiting until you got there?
