Supreme Court weighs youth right to express itself in school
UPI reports that Supreme Court justices hear November arguments on Des Moines teens suspended for wearing black armbands to mourn Vietnam deaths. Lower courts split on student expression, with the 8th Circuit backing school actions and the 5th Circuit defending some free speech rights. The case could set new guidelines for student expression and first amendment scope in schools.
