Freedom of Expression and Values Inculcation in the Public School Curriculum.

Gordon, Robert M.

Journal of Law and Education, v13 n4 p523-79 Oct 1984

Examines the relationship between constitutionally protected freedom of expression and the state's interests in inculcating common values in the young through public education. Argues that the state may only transmit values that are express or implied in the Constitution and that the courts have not addressed this issue. (PGD)
