Public Education In Nova Scotia: Legal Rights, Fleeting Privileges Or Political Rhetoric?, A. Wayne Mackay Jan 1984

Public Education In Nova Scotia: Legal Rights, Fleeting Privileges Or Political Rhetoric?, A. Wayne Mackay

Dalhousie Law Journal

A truly democratic and egalitarian society cannot exist without a broadly based public education. Nova Scotia has an enviable record in the field of education as a leader and innovator in the development of both the public schools and post secondary institutions. The Scots, who have always valued educating their young, implanted this same value in Nova Scotian soil. Other groups have also followed the Scottish lead in educational matters. Even in difficult economic times, which came frequently to Nova Scotia, education has not been sacrificed on the altar of economic restraint. In the 1980's education does not appear to …


The Faculty Of Law, University Of British Columbia, 1970-1981, A. J. Mcclean Jan 1984

The Faculty Of Law, University Of British Columbia, 1970-1981, A. J. Mcclean

Dalhousie Law Journal

The period from 1957 to 1970 was from any perspective a period of rapid expansion and development in Canadian legal education. The years from 1970 until 1981 were by contrast a time of consolidation. In part that flowed almost naturally from the hectic pace of the 1960s; in part it flowed from financial restraints which became increasingly stringent in the latter half of the decade.' Not surprisingly the experience of the Faculty of Law at the University of British Columbia reflects, in varying degrees, the national pattern.


Personality As A Criterion For Faculty Tenure: The Enemy It Is Us, Perry A. Zirkel Jan 1984

Personality As A Criterion For Faculty Tenure: The Enemy It Is Us, Perry A. Zirkel

Cleveland State Law Review

Faculty tenure has been the subject of continuing concern and controversy in American higher education. Problems in this area, including the lack of definitive standards for evaluating tenure candidates, have been highlighted by the recent downturn in the economy and the resultant decline in both enrollment and employment in colleges and universities. This trend is actively demonstrated by the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals decision in Mayberry v. Dees. This Article advocates and proposes a more exacting judicial review of faculty tenure cases that are based on collegiality or other such personality criteria. Initially, the operational context of faculty tenure …

Judge Hand's History: An Analysis Of History And Method In Jaffree V. Board Of School Commissioners Of Mobile County, Michael Kent Curtis Sep 1983

Judge Hand's History: An Analysis Of History And Method In Jaffree V. Board Of School Commissioners Of Mobile County, Michael Kent Curtis

West Virginia Law Review

In Jaffree v. Board of School Commissioners, the United States District Court for the Southern District of Alabama upheld, against a constitutional challenge, teacher led school prayers. In the companion case of Jaffree v. James, the court upheld the Alabama Prayer Law which permitted state sanctioned prayers in public schools. The religious exercises and the Prayer Law were, of course, unconstitutional when viewed in light of decisions of the United States Supreme Court holding that the first amendment erected a wall of separation between church and state. When faced with direct and settled precedent, the lower federal courts generally follow …


Curriculum, Pedagogy, And The Constitutional Rights Of Teachers In Secondary Schools, Howard Hunter Sep 1983

Curriculum, Pedagogy, And The Constitutional Rights Of Teachers In Secondary Schools, Howard Hunter

Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law

American schools have served as battlegrounds for competing social policies for generations. Major national disputes have centered on racial problems, busing, and federal funding. Local debate continues over curricula, teacher competence, pedagogical methods, textbooks and library books, discipline, and such trivial matters as hairstyle. Nationally, the current debates about school prayer and tax credits for the payment of private school tuition have consumed the time and resources of numerous individuals. These disputes show no sign of abating. Teachers are the most significant participants in the educational process. Their work involves those activities--speaking, writing, and questioning--that constitute the core values protected …

Accrediting Agencies’ Legal Responsibilities: In Pursuit Of The Public Interest, William A. Kaplin Jan 1983

Accrediting Agencies’ Legal Responsibilities: In Pursuit Of The Public Interest, William A. Kaplin

Scholarly Articles

This article considers the evolution in the way courts have labeled or categorized accrediting agencies, and the legal and policy consequences of this evolution. Discussion will then focus on the "public interest" standard that is the core of these developments and on ways in which accrediting agencies can fulfill their legal responsibilities under this standard.

Family Choice: An Idea Whose Time Has Come And Gone?, James J. Fishman

Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications

The heart of the criticism of the existing educational system is the feeling that public schools no longer meet the needs of society, educational bureaucracies account to no one, parents have little say or choice in the educational options for their children, there is little diversity in public schools, and the public school establishment has resisted any attempts at reform or distributing data that could be used to challenge the present system.

Modifying The New York State Public School Financing Formula After Levittown, Elizabeth M. Flinn Jan 1983

Modifying The New York State Public School Financing Formula After Levittown, Elizabeth M. Flinn

Fordham Urban Law Journal

Spending on public education is primarily an obligation of state legislature and local school districts in the United States. Legislatures determine not only the amount of education spending, but also how much money is to be given to specific school districts. As a result, there have been growing discrepancies over how much financial assistance one district will have over another, leaving children from poor and fiscally overburdened districts at a disadvantage. This Note focuses on the New York case, Levittown v. Nyquist, as well as the New York funding formula, and ultimately recommends adoption of a school finance system that …
