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 …

Battling School Violence With Mediation Technology , Gary Richard Hattal, Cynthia Morrow Hattal

Pepperdine Dispute Resolution Law Journal

As we begin the Twenty-First Century public schools have become dangerous places, and not just high schools. Children as young as ten and eleven have brought the system to its knees by shooting down their teachers and fellow students on campus. No one is talking about "juvenile delinquency" anymore. We are hearing and talking about lethal incidents of juvenile violence among all social classes and races, suburban and inner city youth alike. This paper is a discussion of various issues surrounding school violence and its implications for our children. Our focus is to: (1) determine the root causes of extreme …

Recovering Subsidiarity In Family Life Education, Karen Jordan Feb 2012

Recovering Subsidiarity In Family Life Education, Karen Jordan

William & Mary Journal of Race, Gender, and Social Justice

This article provides a rigorous analysis of the legitimacy of continuing to rely on and promote school-based family life education, as a way of addressing concerns associated with sexual activity by adolescents. The issue is crucial because empirical evidence strongly suggests that a school-based approach, regardless of curricular content, has failed. For reasons grounded in law and policy, this article advocates that states should retreat from school-based family life education and, instead, recover the insights of the philosophical principle of subsidiarity. Recovering subsidiarity means fully respecting and giving effect to the parental right and duty to educate children in matters …

Education's Elusive Future, Storied Past, And The Fundamental Inequities Between, Derek W. Black Jan 2012

Education's Elusive Future, Storied Past, And The Fundamental Inequities Between, Derek W. Black

Georgia Law Review

During the past half-century, education has experienced
a broad expansion of civil rights. Where no rights
previously existed, students now have the right to be free
from discrimination based on race, language status,
disability, wealth, gender, and homelessness. The full
development of these rights, along with substantive
educational improvements for disadvantaged students,
however, has recently stalled. For instance, mandatory
school desegregation, which laid the political and
theoretical foundation for other movements, is nearly non-
existent today. Other movements fare better than
desegregation, but nonetheless face serious limitations.
The overall trend of these various movements raises
serious questions about the prospects …
