Morse v Frederick (2007): Supreme Court Cases Series

In a 5-4 decision, the Court ruled in favor of Principal Morse and the school district, allowing the school to prohibit messages promoting drug use at school-sponsored events. Chief Justice John Roberts wrote that while students hold rights to political speech, established in Tinker v Des Moines (1969), this right did not extend to promoting illegal drugs. The Court deviated further from Tinker by distinguishing between the rights of adults and the rights of children. However, the Court cited Tinker, which established that political speech could be limited if it substantially disrupted education, and claimed that Frederick’s sign did just that. While Frederick’s sign was somewhat ambiguous, the Court concluded that it was meant to promote the use of drugs, which could reasonably be assumed to disrupt education. The Court did not see his speech as political as the case in Tinker. The Court also cited Bethel School District v Fraser (1986), which established that the First Amendment did not protect obscenity in school. Roberts’ opinion also relied on Hazelwood v Kuhlmeier (1988) in which the Court decided the speech of school-sponsored newspapers could be restricted. **Find a transcript, lesson plans, worksheets, and more at: https://academy4sc.org/video/morse-v-... **Think Further Questions 1. Do you consider the outcome in this case to be a complete deviation from the decision in Tinker? Why or why not? 2. Should students be given the same free speech rights as adults? Is the distinction in age or the school environment, or both? 3. Since marijuana use is legal now in some states, do you think that if Frederick had the same sign promoting marijuana use today his suspension would be upheld? **Contents 00:00 - Case 00:56 - Decision 02:48 - Dissent 03:18 - Impact #academy4sc #civics #ussupremecourtcases
