Equal Access: Courts and Congress Disagree.

Sendor, Benjamin

American School Board Journal, v171 n11 p7,48 Nov 1984

Recent court decisions on student religious groups and the Equal Access Act passed by Congress conflict on interpretation of the Constitution. Until a Supreme Court decision resolves the issues, school boards in jurisdictions affected by the decisions should obey the rulings; others should get legal advice. (MD)
