Pomp and Controversy.
Vacca, Richard S.; Hudgins, H. C., Jr.
American School Board Journal, v181 n5 p29-32 May 1994
School boards need to keep current on the status of graduation prayer. The "Weisman" decision said graduation prayers violated the First Amendment; the "Jones" decision would allow graduation ceremonies with student-led invocations and benedictions. Reviews these decisions to pinpoint the sources of confusion in subsequent interpretations and applications. Offers suggestions to school boards. (MLF)
