Affordable Private Education And The Middle Class City, Nicole Stelle Garnett 2010 Notre Dame Law School

Affordable Private Education And The Middle Class City, Nicole Stelle Garnett

Journal Articles

This Essay, which was prepared for a University of Chicago Law School’s symposium on “Rethinking the Local Government Toolkit,” argues that affordable private schools serve an important urban-development function: They partially unbundle the residential and educational decisions of families with children. Thus, state and local officials hoping to make our make central city neighborhoods attractive places to raise children should consider employing a familiar urban development tool - tax incentives - to make quality private schools more financially accessible to middle-income families. The Essay proceeds in three parts. Part I builds the case for a middle class city. Part II …


Second Class Citizens: The Case Against Unequal Military Healthcare Benefits For Puerto Rican Veterans, Mónica Matos-Desa 2010 Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law

Second Class Citizens: The Case Against Unequal Military Healthcare Benefits For Puerto Rican Veterans, Mónica Matos-Desa

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice

The note argues that Puerto Rican veterans and their families face unequal treatment under the TRICARE healthcare system due to Puerto Rico's status as an unincorporated territory. This inequality stems from historical legal frameworks that have perpetuated the notion of Puerto Ricans as second-class citizens, despite their significant contributions to the U.S. military. The note advocates for legislative changes to extend equal TRICARE Prime benefits to Puerto Rico, ensuring first-class citizenship for its residents.


Smacking Lesson: How The Council Of Europe's Ban On Corporal Punishment Could Serve As A Model For The United States, Timothy John Nolen 2010 Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law

Smacking Lesson: How The Council Of Europe's Ban On Corporal Punishment Could Serve As A Model For The United States, Timothy John Nolen

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice

The note advocates for the United States to adopt a model similar to the Council of Europe, allowing states to ban corporal punishment while respecting federalism. It highlights the negative effects of corporal punishment and the need for a comprehensive ban, drawing on international legal standards and empirical evidence.


"Your Results May Vary": Protecting Students And Taxpayers Through Tighter Regulation Of Proprietary School Representations, Aaron N. Taylor 2010 Saint Louis University School of Law

"Your Results May Vary": Protecting Students And Taxpayers Through Tighter Regulation Of Proprietary School Representations, Aaron N. Taylor

All Faculty Scholarship

This article argues for stricter regulation of proprietary (for-profit) school advertising and recruitment practices and proffers specific proposals for effectuating this regulation. Proprietary schools play an important role in broadening access to higher education. They enroll a large number of students who are underserved by traditional, non-profit institutions. These students tend to be poorer, less educated, and older than students at traditional schools, and they tend to undertake higher education for very practical reasons. These characteristics make them particularly susceptible to deceptive marketing and unfounded promises of higher education providers. Unfortunately, some proprietary schools exploit the susceptibilities of their target …

Drug Testing Students In California – Does It Violate The State Constitution?, Floralynn Einesman 2010 California Western School of Law

Drug Testing Students In California – Does It Violate The State Constitution?, Floralynn Einesman

Faculty Scholarship

The Department of Education has granted federal funds to California school districts for the purpose of initiating and maintaining drug-testing programs for students and volunteers involved in athletics and extracurricular activities, yet no California court has fully examined these programs to determine their validity under the California Constitution. Before any additional California schools adopt drug-testing programs, the legality of these programs should be examined under the California Constitution. This Article seeks to accomplish that task. Part II summarizes the United States Supreme Court decisions on student drug testing. Part III examines state law on student drug testing. Part IV focuses …


Governing Board Accountability: Competition, Regulation And Accreditation, Judith C. Areen 2010 Georgetown University Law Center

Governing Board Accountability: Competition, Regulation And Accreditation, Judith C. Areen

Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works

This article examines the three primary ways in which the governing boards of American colleges and universities are held to account: (1) competition; (2) regulation, including state nonprofit corporation laws, tax laws, and licensing laws; and (3) accreditation. It begins by tracing how lay (meaning nonfaculty) governing boards became the dominant form of governance in American higher education. It argues that governing boards provide American institutions of higher education with an exceptional degree of autonomy from state control and that, together with the shared governance approach that gives faculties primary responsibility for academic matters, they have been a vital factor …


Individualized Service Provision In The New Welfare State: Lessons From Special Education In Finland, Charles F. Sabel, AnnaLee Saxenian, Reijo Miettinen, Peer Hull Kristensen, Jarkko Hautamäki 2010 Columbia Law School

Individualized Service Provision In The New Welfare State: Lessons From Special Education In Finland, Charles F. Sabel, Annalee Saxenian, Reijo Miettinen, Peer Hull Kristensen, Jarkko Hautamäki

Faculty Scholarship

The essay is four parts. Part 2 sets out the theoretical frame of the argument. It explains briefly why social solidarity increasingly depends on the provision of capacitating or enabling circumstances; why those services must increasingly be adapted to individual needs to be effective; and what is organizationally problematic (from the point of view of current theories of organization) about the success of countries such as Finland, Denmark and the US in delivering these services. It sketches two paths — a Nordic way, building on traditional professions, and a roundabout, US way, re-building broken bureaucracies originally intended as substitutes for …
