Beyond The Schoolhouse Gate: Should Schools Have The Authority To Punish Online Student Speech?, Brittany L. Kaspar Dec 2012

Beyond The Schoolhouse Gate: Should Schools Have The Authority To Punish Online Student Speech?, Brittany L. Kaspar

Chicago-Kent Law Review

This note analyzes the current circuit split over whether schools should have the authority to punish students for speech made on the Internet. Part I discusses the First Amendment generally and the four Supreme Court cases that have refined its application with respect to on-campus student speech. Part II presents the ensuing circuit split over the constitutionality of disciplining students for online, off-campus speech. Specifically, this section will explain both of the existing perspectives and why neither of the two is ideal. Part III attempts to devise a solution to the current divide by advocating a compromise position. In particular, …

The Gunslinger To The Ivory Tower Came: Should Universities Have A Duty To Prevent Rampage Killings?, Ben "Ziggy" Williamson Nov 2012

The Gunslinger To The Ivory Tower Came: Should Universities Have A Duty To Prevent Rampage Killings?, Ben "Ziggy" Williamson

Florida Law Review

On April 16, 2007, Seung Hui Cho, a Virginia Tech student, went on a rampage across the university’s campus. He murdered thirty-two people —twenty-seven students and five professors—before killing himself. Cho’s rampage was not only the worst mass shooting on an American university campus, it was the worst in American history—twenty-seven students and five professors—before killing Cho’s horrific actions and his highly publicized video manifestos revealed a deeply disturbed personality. But to some students, teachers and administrators, Cho’s nature was not a revelation. Cho’s troubled history included suicidal and homicidal ideation since middle school, violent and disturbing writings, classroom behavior …


Two Wrongs Don't Negate A Copyright: Don't Make Students Turnitin If You Won't Give It Back, Samuel J. Horovitz Nov 2012

Two Wrongs Don't Negate A Copyright: Don't Make Students Turnitin If You Won't Give It Back, Samuel J. Horovitz

Florida Law Review

The story goes something like this: There was a particularly difficult college professor notorious for a low grading scale. After years of low grade following low grade, one paper finally earned a B minus, the highest grade ever awarded by this professor. Word spread about the paper, and the student author sold it to the highest bidder, who later turned in the same paper to the same professor and received a B. The next year, after being recycled yet again, the paper received a B plus. When the paper was recycled and submitted a fourth time, it finally received an …


Returning To Hazelwood's Core: A New Approach To Restrictions On School-Sponsored Speech, Emily Gold Waldman Nov 2012

Returning To Hazelwood's Core: A New Approach To Restrictions On School-Sponsored Speech, Emily Gold Waldman

Florida Law Review

Nearly twenty years ago in Hazelwood School District v. Kuhlmeier, the Supreme Court, in upholding the constitutionality of a public high school principal’s censorship of a student newspaper produced in a journalism class, held that “educators do not offend the First Amendment by exercising editorial control over the style and content of student speech in school-sponsored expressive activities so long as their actions are reasonably related to legitimate pedagogical concerns.” Since then, Hazelwood’s “reasonably related to legitimate pedagogical concerns” This Article argues that this conundrum can be untangled by returning to Hazelwood’s core as a student speech case. It first …

Put The Town On Notice: School District Liability And Lgbt Bullying Notification Laws, Yariv Pierce Sep 2012

Put The Town On Notice: School District Liability And Lgbt Bullying Notification Laws, Yariv Pierce

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

Congress could mitigate the problem of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) student bullying by requiring that teachers and school officials report all bullying incidents to their school district administrators. Many school districts are not aware of the prevalence of LGBT bullying and the extent to which each school protects, or fails to protect, its LGBT students compared to other harassed students. LGBT students often encounter difficulty demonstrating that their school district has a policy or custom of deliberate indifference toward their equal treatment when a school does not equally protect an LGBT student from peer-to-peer bullying because of the …

Comparing Single-Sex And Reformed Coeducation: A Constitutional Analysis, Nancy Chi Cantalupo Aug 2012

Comparing Single-Sex And Reformed Coeducation: A Constitutional Analysis, Nancy Chi Cantalupo

San Diego Law Review

One of the most enduring educational debates of the past three decades has dealt with the legality and advisability of sex-segregated education. This debate can often look confusing, given a large number of debaters and the diversity of their perspectives and agendas. More than this diversity, however, the debate is confusing because the debate has been structured as a contest between the "innovation" of sex-segregated education and status quo coeducation. Missing from the debate is a comparison between reformed coeducation and a single-sex alternative, a comparison that is markedly more useful in determining what ought to be done about the …

The Inheritance Of Inequality: Hukou<.I> And Related Barriers To Compulsory Education For China's Migrant Children, Jessica L. Montgomery Jun 2012

The Inheritance Of Inequality: Hukou<.I> And Related Barriers To Compulsory Education For China's Migrant Children, Jessica L. Montgomery

Washington International Law Journal

The hukou system in China uses residency permits to divide Chinese citizens into urban and rural dwellers. A person’s hukou status determines his or her access to state services. Under normal circumstances, a person with a rural hukou status is not eligible for state services in urban areas, and vice versa. Because hukou is primarily inherited from one’s parents at the time of birth, children born in urban areas to parents with rural hukou are similarly designated as rural hukou holders. As a result, children living in cities with rural hukou are ineligible for enrollment in urban public schools even …
