Download or read book Corporal Punishment in U S Public Schools written by Elizabeth T. Gershoff and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-01-27 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Brief reviews the past, present, and future use of school corporal punishment in the United States, a practice that remains legal in 19 states as it is constitutionally permitted according to the U.S. Supreme Court. As a result of school corporal punishment, nearly 200,000 children are paddled in schools each year. Most Americans are unaware of this fact or the physical injuries sustained by countless school children who are hit with objects by school personnel in the name of discipline. Therefore, Corporal Punishment in U.S. Public Schools begins by summarizing the legal basis for school corporal punishment and trends in Americans’ attitudes about it. It then presents trends in the use of school corporal punishment in the United States over time to establish its past and current prevalence. It then discusses what is known about the effects of school corporal punishment on children, though with so little research on this topic, much of the relevant literature is focused on parents’ use of corporal punishment with their children. It also provides results from a policy analysis that examines the effect of state-level school corporal punishment bans on trends in juvenile crime. It concludes by discussing potential legal, policy, and advocacy avenues for abolition of school corporal punishment at the state and federal levels as well as summarizing how school corporal punishment is being used and what its potential implications are for thousands of individual students and for the society at large. As school corporal punishment becomes more and more regulated at the state level, Corporal Punishment in U.S. Public Schools serves an essential guide for policymakers and advocates across the country as well as for researchers, scientist-practitioners, and graduate students.

Book excerpt: A Washington Post Notable Book of the Year A New York Times Book Review Editors’ Choice An award-winning constitutional law scholar at the University of Chicago (who clerked for Judge Merrick B. Garland, Justice Stephen Breyer, and Justice Sandra Day O’Connor) gives us an engaging and alarming book that aims to vindicate the rights of public school students, which have so often been undermined by the Supreme Court in recent decades. Judicial decisions assessing the constitutional rights of students in the nation’s public schools have consistently generated bitter controversy. From racial segregation to unauthorized immigration, from antiwar protests to compulsory flag salutes, from economic inequality to teacher-led prayer—these are but a few of the cultural anxieties dividing American society that the Supreme Court has addressed in elementary and secondary schools. The Schoolhouse Gate gives a fresh, lucid, and provocative account of the historic legal battles waged over education and illuminates contemporary disputes that continue to fracture the nation. Justin Driver maintains that since the 1970s the Supreme Court has regularly abdicated its responsibility for protecting students’ constitutional rights and risked transforming public schools into Constitution-free zones. Students deriving lessons about citizenship from the Court’s decisions in recent decades would conclude that the following actions taken by educators pass constitutional muster: inflicting severe corporal punishment on students without any procedural protections, searching students and their possessions without probable cause in bids to uncover violations of school rules, random drug testing of students who are not suspected of wrongdoing, and suppressing student speech for the viewpoint it espouses. Taking their cue from such decisions, lower courts have upheld a wide array of dubious school actions, including degrading strip searches, repressive dress codes, draconian “zero tolerance” disciplinary policies, and severe restrictions on off-campus speech. Driver surveys this legal landscape with eloquence, highlights the gripping personal narratives behind landmark clashes, and warns that the repeated failure to honor students’ rights threatens our basic constitutional order. This magisterial book will make it impossible to view American schools—or America itself—in the same way again.

Download or read book Ending Zero Tolerance written by Derek W. Black and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2016-09-13 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Suspension and expulsion rates have doubled over the past three decades as zero tolerance policies have become the normal response to a host of minor infractions that extend well beyond just drugs and weapons. Students from all demographic groups have suffered, but minority and special needs students have suffered the most. Derek Black weaves stories about individual students, lessons from social science, and the outcomes of courts cases to unearth a shockingly irrational system of punishment. While schools and legislatures have proven unable and unwilling to amend their failing policies, Ending Zero Tolerance argues for constitutional protections to check abuses in school discipline and lays out theories by which courts should re-engage to enforce students' rights and support broader reforms." -- Book jacket.
Download or read book The Effects of Law and Disciplinary Systems on College Student Development written by Shaina H. Vanek and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the demise of the doctrine of in loco parentis in the mid-1960's, the role that the United States government has played in matters of student conduct at postsecondary institutions has changed drastically. Although higher education has traditionally experienced minimal involvement from the outside world when it comes to disciplinary action against students, significant case law has emerged over the past forty years which has shifted the way colleges and universities deal with conduct issues. The most substantial change to the way colleges and universities handle such cases is in regard to the guarantee of due process rights in all disciplinary proceedings brought against students. Due process refers to the elements of proper notice of charges, an impartial hearing, and substantial evidence of the misconduct itself. In short, all student disciplinary proceedings must be "fundamentally fair" to the students being charged. In addition to the involvement of the legal system through case law, higher education has also been faced with numerous legislative mandates over the past forty years. This thesis examines one such piece of legislation, the Family educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974, also known as the "Buckley Amendment" and "FERP A". The legal and social impacts of FERP A, along with its' associated amendments, are quite significant in relation to both students and student affairs professionals. Questions are raised about the effect that FERPA has on student privacy rights and how the legislation operates in relation to due process. Additionally, the challenges faced by student affairs professionals who attempt to understand and implement the regulations of FERP A are also considered. The unique element of this research lies with how it couples legislative mandates with various student affairs doctrines, attempting to find a balance between the two. As a result of this research, it is clear that risk management must be paired with a focus on student development and ethical practices in order for postsecondary institutions to successfully handle the demands of legislative involvement in modern higher education.
