The Drug-Testing Dilemma.
Dowling-Sendor, Benjamin
American School Board Journal, v186 n10 p20-21,55 Oct 1999
The recent decision of the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in "Miller," based on the school district's interest in preventing possible abuse, gave legal support for random, suspiciousless drug testing of students. Contends this is a "slippery slope" argument, that the key factor in deciding whether to adopt a policy of random drug testing should be based on evidence of a substance-abuse problem in the district's schools.
