Da Universidade. Reflexão Jurídica Em Tempo De Crise, Paulo Ferreira da Cunha 2012 Universidade do Porto

Da Universidade. Reflexão Jurídica Em Tempo De Crise, Paulo Ferreira Da Cunha

Paulo Ferreira da Cunha

Há princípios constitucionais para as Universidades. É bom que tal não se esqueça num tempo em que a Constituição está, mais que metida na gaveta, apedrejada todos os dias. E há princípios de bom senso, também. A Universidade não pode ser desvirtuada nem por asfixia financeira, nem por burocracia antidemocrática, nem por modismos que distraiam os professores (e até os estudantes) dos fins naturais e primaciais que tem: aprender e ensinar.


The Gunslinger To The Ivory Tower Came: Should Universities Have A Duty To Prevent Rampage Killings?, Ben "Ziggy" Williamson 2012 University of Florida Levin College of Law

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 2012 University of Florida

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 2012 University of Florida Levin College of Law

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 …


Brisa De Anomia - Da Constituição Real Ao Quotidiano Incompetente, Paulo Ferreira da Cunha 2012 Universidade do Porto

Brisa De Anomia - Da Constituição Real Ao Quotidiano Incompetente, Paulo Ferreira Da Cunha

Paulo Ferreira da Cunha

Há vários sintomas de mal estar social, todos sabemos. Desde uma Constituição que parece ter passado a nominal ou semântica em algumas dimensões ao menos, não por culpa sua mas de quem a deveria cumprir, até ao esboroar das relações laborais e ao crescendo da insatisfação laboral de quem trabalha, a par do crescendo do desemprego, ou à falta de boa fé contratual... Sente-se ainda que muitos serviços estão a funcionar mal, mercê da precaridade dos contratos dos trabalhadores, promovidos a verdes colaboradores muitas vezes... Ainda parece, em geral, viver-se sob a lei, mas já há muitas bolsas de torto …
