Anti-Harassment Policies in Public Schools: How Vulnerable Are They?
McCarthy, Martha
Journal of Law & Education, v31 n1 p52-70 Jan 2002
Analyzes recent federal court decision striking down school anti-harassment policy on First Amendment grounds. Discusses freedom of expression rights in public setting as compared to public-school context. Argues decision incorrectly relies on law developed outside public-school context, unjustifiably finds violation of First Amendment, and may set bad precedent. (KSB)
