Liability in Student Discipline Cases
Reutter, E. Edmund, Jr.
IAR Research Bulletin, 15, 4, 1,8-9, May 75
Discusses the U.S. Supreme Court's 1975 ruling that school officials are liable to civil suits when they violate a student's constitutional rights through "ignorance or disregard of settled, indisputable law." After examining implications of the decision, the author concludes that no unjustified burdens have been imposed on school officials. (JG)
