See West Virginia v. Barnette, 319 U. S. 624 (1943); Stromberg v. California, 283 U. S. 359 (1931). Cf. Thornhill v. Alabama, 310 U. S. 88 (1940); Edwards v. South Carolina,372 U. S. 229 (1963); Brown v. Louisiana, 383 U. S. 131 (1966).
Of the following, which is the most likely reason the signal Cf. comes before the case Thornhill v. Alabama?
CorrectIncorrect - Question 3 of 5
3. Question
First Amendment rights, applied in light of the special characteristics of the school environment, are available to teachers and students. It can hardly be argued that either students or teachers shed their constitutional rights to freedom of speech or expression at the schoolhouse gate. This has been the unmistakable holding of this Court for almost 50 years. In Meyer v. Nebraska, 262 U. S. 390 (1923), and Bartels v. Iowa, 262 U. S. 404 (1923), this Court, in opinions by Mr. Justice McReynolds, held that the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment prevents States from forbidding the teaching of a foreign language to young students.
What does the Court mean when it writes, “This has been the unmistakable holding of this Court for almost 50 years.”?
CorrectIncorrect - Question 4 of 5
4. Question
In West Virginia v. Barnette, supra, this Court held that under the First Amendment, the student in public school may not be compelled to salute the flag.
Of the following, which best expresses why the Court refers to West Virginia v. Barnette?
CorrectIncorrect - Question 5 of 5
5. Question
On the other hand, the Court has repeatedly emphasized the need for affirming the comprehensive authority of the States and of school officials, consistent with fundamental constitutional safeguards, to prescribe and control conduct in the schools. See Epperson v. Arkansas, supra, at 104; Meyer v. Nebraska, supra, at 402. Our problem lies in the area where students in the exercise of First Amendment rights collide with the rules of the school authorities.
Of the following, which best describes what the Court is writing here?
CorrectIncorrect
