A New Era In Humane Education: How Troubling Youth Trends And A Call For Character Education Are Breathing New Life Into Efforts To Educate Our Youth About The Value Of All Life, Lydia S. Antoncic Jan 2003

A New Era In Humane Education: How Troubling Youth Trends And A Call For Character Education Are Breathing New Life Into Efforts To Educate Our Youth About The Value Of All Life, Lydia S. Antoncic

Animal Law Review

The purpose of education is to create in a person the ability to look at the world for himself, to make his own decisions, to say to himself this is black or this is white, to decide for himself whether there is a God in heaven or not. To ask questions of the universe, and then to learn to live with those questions, is the way he achieves his own identity. But no society is really anxious to have that kind of person around. What societies really, ideally want is a citizenry which will simply obey the rules of society. …

Overcoming A Lawyer's Dogma: Examining Due Process For The "Disruptive Student", Jessica Falk Jan 2003

Overcoming A Lawyer's Dogma: Examining Due Process For The "Disruptive Student", Jessica Falk

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

This Note explores how traditional due process functions in the context of school expulsion hearings. Traditional due process is inadequate in the case of "chronically disruptive" students because these students have lost their property right in education long before the law requires a due process hearing. Instead, new avenues of due process that are better adapted to the educational setting must be explored. Lawyers should expect schools to identify students' with behavioral problems before expulsion becomes imminent and assist students in overcoming these problems. This "educational due process" not only helps to protect troubled student's education, but it is also …

Emotional Segregation: Huckleberry Finn In The Modern Classroom, Sharon E. Rush Jan 2003

Emotional Segregation: Huckleberry Finn In The Modern Classroom, Sharon E. Rush

UF Law Faculty Publications

This paper explores the harm of teaching The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn in public school classrooms. Such harm can be broadly described as emotional segregation, which occurs when society sanctions disrespect. To illustrate the effects of emotional segregation, this article explores the reaction Black students and parents have to the novel to that of White students and parents. White students eagerly imagine being Huck and going on his adventures. Black students, however, cannot and should not even be asked to try to imagine being Huck and betraying their racial identity. But then who are the Black students supposed to identify …

Essay: Pledging Allegiance, Michael K. Steenson Jan 2003

Essay: Pledging Allegiance, Michael K. Steenson

Faculty Scholarship

This Essay focuses on the Pledge of Allegiance requirement and its place in public schools. It begins with an analysis of a typical, but certainly not isolated, approach of the Minnesota Legislature, following September 11, in passing a bill that required recitation of the Pledge. This Essay then moves to a discussion of the events surrounding the 1943 United States Supreme Court decision in West Virginia State Board of Education v. Barnette and how Barnette has subsequently been interpreted. Finally, this Essay discusses the probable impact of the Minnesota Constitution on the Pledge Bill, should it pass in this legislative …

Successfully Training And Retaining New Teachers, Jo Ann Daly, Carolyn Kazemi Jan 2003

Successfully Training And Retaining New Teachers, Jo Ann Daly, Carolyn Kazemi

Richmond Public Interest Law Review

The widespread need to fill the many teacher vacancies in Virginia and the nation as a whole has stirred many debates on how to solve the problem. Often a "quick fix" attitude prevails when considering options for training and retaining teacher candidates to fill the current and future needs of our schools. The professional development model of collaboration between Marymount University and two local school jurisdictions is an ongoing effort that has met with success and has produced long-term positive results.

The Federal No Child Left Behind Act And The Post-Desegregation Civil Rights Agenda, James S. Liebman, Charles F. Sabel Jan 2003

The Federal No Child Left Behind Act And The Post-Desegregation Civil Rights Agenda, James S. Liebman, Charles F. Sabel

Faculty Scholarship

Despite many deficiencies, the No Child Left Behind Act ("NCLB" or "Act") extends to the federal level and diffuses to the states an innovative system of publicly monitored decentralization of school governance known as the "New Accountability." This Article argues that, given background changes in the understanding of effective classroom teaching, accountability systems of the type imposed by the NCLB can enable willing school districts to build the capacity for school-level reform upon which the ultimate improvement of public schooling depends. It claims further that activists can accelerate the reforms and ensure respect for the requirements of racial and economic …

School Vouchers: Will They Undermine American Public Schools? Establishing A Context For Debate, Michael F. Dipaolo Jan 2003

School Vouchers: Will They Undermine American Public Schools? Establishing A Context For Debate, Michael F. Dipaolo

Richmond Public Interest Law Review

Available data from 1995 and 1996 shows that school districts with the largest concentrations of children living in poverty spent considerably less per student than districts with smaller concentrations. In 1995 and 1996, public school districts serving metropolitan areas spent more per student for instruction, support services, and capital outlay combined than did other districts. The recent rise of real personal income per capita has paralleled the increase in public revenue for education per elementary or secondary student. During the 1990s, however, revenue as a percentage of personal income, adjusted for the number of students and population size, decreased slightly, …

Ferpa And The Immigration And Naturalization Service: A Guide For University Counsel On Federal Rules For Collecting, Maintaining And Releasing Information About Foreign Students, Laura A.W. Khatcheressian

Law Faculty Publications

The devastating terrorist attacks against the United States on September 11, 2001, destroyed the World Trade Center in New York City, badly damaged the Pentagon, and took the lives of thousands of individuals. As more details became available about the terrorists who hijacked four U.S. planes to carry out these deadly attacks, universities around the U.S. struggled with the news that several of the hijackers had entered the U.S. on, or had later applied for, "student" visas. University officials began to grapple with new questions presented by these attacks: What responsibilities do the universities have to report foreign students who …

Who Is Excellent?, Mari J. Matsuda Jan 2003

Who Is Excellent?, Mari J. Matsuda

Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works

Who will save the life of that silent teenager--the one over there edging toward the condom table, the one across town wondering whether to take Daddy's gun to school, the girl who is too embarrassed to tell anyone her boyfriend hit her, the child picking up a rock in the Gaza Strip? Affirmative action is about who will save these lives. In all of our institutions, the academy among them, we must make decisions of admission. Who will enter these doors and wield power here? Who will ascend to the position of decision maker? Who will walk off with the …

To Do Feminist Legal Theory, Maria Grahn-Farley Jan 2003

To Do Feminist Legal Theory, Maria Grahn-Farley

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice

The forword explores the meaning and practice of Feminist Legal Theory through a symposium that challenges traditional hierarchies in legal education. It emphasizes the importance of solidarity, activism, and centering marginalized voices, particularly those of women and students, to question and dismantle systemic oppression. The symposium serves as a space for students and scholars to collaborate, with students' work at the core, highlighting the need to integrate diverse perspectives and lived experiences into legal academia.

Does Nothing Ever Change; Is Everything New? Comments On The "To Do Feminist Legal Theory" Symposium, Keith Aoki Jan 2003

Does Nothing Ever Change; Is Everything New? Comments On The "To Do Feminist Legal Theory" Symposium, Keith Aoki

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice

The article reflects on the "To Do Feminist Legal Theory" symposium, noting a sense of déjà vu due to the persistence of illegitimate hierarchies in the legal system. Despite this, the symposium offers fresh perspectives, emphasizing the need for multidimensional analyses of oppression and challenging single-axis frameworks. It highlights the importance of continuous critique and action within legal academia and practice to address intersecting forms of subordination.

Emotional Segregation: Huckleberry Finn In The Modern Classroom, Sharon E. Rush Jan 2003

Emotional Segregation: Huckleberry Finn In The Modern Classroom, Sharon E. Rush

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

In this article, I explore emotional segregation and how it functions in the context of Huckleberry Finn for both personal and academic reasons. Recently, I read Huckleberry Finn because it had been assigned to my daughter's middle school class. I was concerned for her welfare because she is Black and worried how the book would affect her. To understand her reactions, I had to understand the controversy surrounding the book, particularly as a White mother I have reflected quite deeply on the question whether the book is racist. I define "racism" as a belief in the myth of White superiority …

The Promise And Precondition Of Educational Autonomy, Neal K. Katyal Jan 2003

The Promise And Precondition Of Educational Autonomy, Neal K. Katyal

Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works

Part One of this Essay defends the Court's [Grutter] analysis. The thesis here is a simple one: Universities should have a zone of freedom in which to conduct their academic affairs because they are better at making choices about educational matters than are generalist courts. This is the position I took, both in the Sixth Circuit and in the Supreme Court, as the chief counsel to the amicus deans of many of the nation's leading private law schools in Grutter. Academic freedom has become something of a pariah concept; indeed, our amicus brief contained the only substantial discussion, let alone …

Locked In Inequality: The Persistence Of Discrimination, Daria Roithmayr Jan 2003

Locked In Inequality: The Persistence Of Discrimination, Daria Roithmayr

Michigan Journal of Race and Law

In this Article, the author argues that the practice of charging school fees to attend public school is an example of locked-in discrimination that persists over time, even in the absence of intentional discrimination. Exploring the lock-in model of discrimination in the unique context of South Africa, Roithmayr makes two central points. First, discriminatory practices often become locked into institutional structures because high switching costs-the costs of moving from a discriminatory practice to an inclusive one—make it too difficult for an institution to discontinue discriminating. Even when institutional actors are fully committed to eradicating racial disparity, they may be constrained …
