Peer reviewedMenacker, Julius – Urban Education, 1989
The development of students' rights to free expression are explored through a historical review of judicial decisions on the subject from 1943 to 1988. The analysis shows that student civil rights have been eroded by the Supreme Court while other types of civil liberties in education have been protected. (VM)

Peer reviewedLincoln, Eugene A. – Urban Education, 1986
In New Jersey vs. T.L.O. (1985) the Supreme Court clarified and limited the student's Fourth Amendment rights against "unreasonable searches and seizures." When school officials act alone and on their own authority, they need not obtain a warrant but may conduct a search based on the lesser standard of "reasonableness." (LHW)
