Gluckman, Ivan B.

NASSP Bulletin, v69 n479 p33-38 Mar 1985

An edited version of federal district court Judge William O. Bertelsman's opinion in "Bahr vs. Jenkins" reveals his thinking on the courts' self-restraint in cases affecting school administrators' authority when disciplining students. The opinion also discusses, in an informal style, the rights and responsibilities of parties in such cases. (PGD)
