Supreme Court Docket. "Special Characteristics" and Realities of Schooling.
Whitson, James Anthony
Social Education, v52 n4 p245-46 Apr-May 1988
Interprets the Hazelwood School District (Missouri) censorship case. Contends that, because classrooms are places where ideas and expressions are presented to be studied and challenged, special limitations on the free speech rights of students are misplaced. Advocates a differentiated standard for free speech in schools, a standard that is fully informed by the knowledge, interests, and commitments of educators. (JDH)
