School Law: Censorship or Common Sense?

Splitt, David A.

Executive Educator, v10 n4 p11,34 Apr 1988

In "Hazelwood School District v. Kuhlmeier," the Supreme Court ruled that school officials have final prepublication review over the contents of public school newspapers. This decision can be a victory for would-be journalists if students and educators alike can better define the standards and boundaries of responsible journalism. (MLF)
