Academic Freedom Advisory: Be Wary of the Long Arm of "Kuhlmeier."

Reutter, E. Edmund, Jr.

West's Education Law Quarterly, v3 n3 p440-47 Jul 1994

Examines four cases decided in circuit courts regarding teachers' academic freedom. Cited in all these decisions was "Kuhlmeier," a case involving the lawful restriction of student speech. Contends that some of the language in the opinions could stimulate governing boards to try to intrude upon the professional judgment of teachers. (42 footnotes) (MLF)
