    In Goss v. Lopez, 419 U.S. 565 (1975), nine students were given 10-day suspensions from school without an opportunity for any hearings. The students then decided to challenge the principals’ actions, and the court found that the student’s rights had been violated. The court decided that students facing temporary suspension from a school have property and liberty interest that qualify for protection under the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. This case is similar to the case at hand because it involves the assessment of student’s rights to due process during the expulsion process. With the Goss decision in mind, it can be concluded that the expelled Howard students also have constitutional rights that protect their right to due…

    This legislation addressing house bill 186 is of predominant interest to me because I am a student at the University of West Georgia and I believe that every student should feel secure while within his or her institution. This issue also directly impacts my fellow peers and professors as well as my mother, a grade school educator, and her students. From personal experience I have noticed the change in school systems where the building’s security has become more like a prison and less like an inviting community to learn because of the growth in school violence. House bill 186 clarifies the law regarding weapons in school safety zones consisting of any real property owned or leased by a school or postsecondary institution. This bill will amend provisions relating to carrying weapons within certain school safety zones and at school functions.…

    Hobbes Free Speech Zone

    • 4 Pages

Established by colleges and universities to accommodate—not stifle—Vietnam era protests, free speech zones were created in a time closer to that of George Orwell than our own contemporary society. Additionally, they are complemented by hazy, ambiguous policies that enable administrative abuse as well as accountability absent action against students. This cannot stand, for free speech zones and administrative censorship are a band-aid for a flesh wound, lacking solvency and efficacy while concurrently making a mountain out of a molehill because the vast majority of policy violations are benign in nature. Consider Hobbes’ social contract, in which people empower a state in exchange…
