Should Students Have Constitutional Rights? Keeping Order In The Public Schools, Anne Proffitt Dupre

Scholarly Works

This Article focuses on how the Supreme Court's conception of the public school as either an institution of social reproduction or reconstruction, a conflict Professor Dupre maintains is deeply rooted in intellectual history, has affected the power that public schools have been afforded in matters of discipline and order. Professor Dupre argues that the Court -- by allowing the reconstruction model to influence its opinion for almost thirty years -- paved the way for the decline in school order and educational quality. Although Professor Dupre contends that the Court's recent repudiation of the reconstruction model in Vernonia School District 47J …

Missouri V. Jenkins And The De Facto Abandonment Of Court-Enforced Desegregation, Bradley W. Joondeph

Washington Law Review

It has been forty-three years since the Supreme Court decided Brown v. Board of Education. In this Article, the author argues that the Court's recent decision, Missouri v. Jenkins, presages the end of court-enforced school desegregation. In addition, Jenkins shows that the Court is unwilling to confront its doctrinal principles in the area, preferring instead to base its decisions on relatively narrow, case-specific grounds. Jenkins therefore reveals that the Court will end this important era in our constitutional history quietly, gradually and without articulating its justifications. The author also contends that the reasons for curtailing desegregation remedies proffered …

Surviving Student To Student Sexual Harassment: Legal Remedies And Prevention Programmes, Chantal Richard

Dalhousie Law Journal

Educators in Canada have recently identified that incidents of sexual harassment between students occur daily in our junior high and high schools. Sexual harassment seriously affects a student's emotional and physical well-being and negatively affects her opportunity to receive an equal education. In this article, the author examines the existing legal remedies available to a student victim of sexual harassment and concludes that student sexual harassment is best dealt with through education and preventative measures taken by school boards.

At Loggerheads: The Supreme Court And Racial Equality In Public School Education After Missouri V. Jenkins, Roberta M. Harding

Law Faculty Scholarly Articles

June 12th of 1995 marked a somber occasion in the annals of school desegregation litigation. On that day, the United States Supreme Court sent disturbing messages in its opinion in Missouri v. Jenkins. The Court's decision hinders achievement of the objective of school desegregation litigation—providing equal educational opportunities for African-American public school children—and detrimentally impacts other substantive areas of civil rights litigation. This article examines what I believe are several important general consequences of Jenkins's the impairment of a trial judge's discretionary equitable remedial powers; the Court's establishment of a new agenda that sacrifices the interests of African-American …

Rosenberger V. Rector & Visitors Of The University Of Virginia: Free Speech Clause And Establishment Clause Doctrines Work Together To Protect Individual Thought And Expression, Elizabeth M. Wheeler

Mercer Law Review

In Rosenberger v. Rector & Visitors of the University of Virginia, the United States Supreme Court evaluated the constitutionality of a state university's refusal to fund a student group's activity based solely on the group's Christian perspective. Respondent, the University of Virginia, regularly authorizes the payment of the printing bills for various student publications. Upon authorization, the University pays outside printing contractors directly with money from the Student Activities Fund ("SAF), which is supported by mandatory student fees. The purpose of the SAF is to make available to students a wide range of opportunities by supporting extracurricular activities that …

Free Speech Faces Hostile Environment: An Aggressive Hunt For Sex Harassment Leaves Plenty Of Wreckage, Kenneth Lasson

All Faculty Scholarship

Take the case of James Maas, who has been teaching at Cornell University for more than 30 years and whose Psychology 101 is perhaps the largest undergraduate course in the country (attracting about 1,000 students every semester). He was won numerous teaching awards. In 1994, Mr. Maas was called before Cornell's "Professional Ethics Committee" to defend himself against charges of sexual harassment. The allegations centered around his "overly friendly and affectionate behavior" - which, it turns out, were hugs and occasional social kisses, most often in front of class or family.
