Student Conduct Regulations, Arthur J. Marinelli Jr.
Cleveland State Law Review
The law relating to university students in their relationships with their schools has been undergoing rapid change as students have sought judicial relief when subjected to disciplinary action by universities.

Tort Liability Of Teachers And Administrators For Negligent Conduct Toward Pupils, Reynolds C. Seitz
Tort Liability Of Teachers And Administrators For Negligent Conduct Toward Pupils, Reynolds C. Seitz
Cleveland State Law Review

School Boards - A Mandate For Enlightenment Unfulfilled, Edgar L. Lindley
School Boards - A Mandate For Enlightenment Unfulfilled, Edgar L. Lindley
Cleveland State Law Review
