Read this excerpt from a passage.
Schools also censor by prohibiting some articles to be printed in student newspapers. Approximately 74 percent of high schools in the United States offer student newspapers or journalism programs. Student publications are a safe venue where adolescents can express their opinions. These programs are often run by students and overseen by teachers and other adults at the school. Before articles are printed, they usually go through an editing and review process. Although this is a normal part of the publication process, it can sometimes lead to censorship. There have been many cases where portions of the text or entire articles have been removed from school newspapers for being inappropriate. A famous Supreme Court case involving this issue occurred in 1988 in Hazelwood v. Kuhlmeier. The principal of Hazelwood East High School prohibited two topics from being printed in the school newspaper. Hazelwood East students brought the case to court, arguing that their First Amendment right to free speech had been violated. In this case, the court ruled that the principal did not violate the students’ free speech right. The court pointed out that the school newspaper was not a "public forum," and that, therefore, students did not have the same First Amendment rights as other journalists. Many people were outraged by this decision and continue to fight censorship in school newspapers.
