Navigating the rapid changes and complexities of federal, state and local legislation coupled with differences between state and institution types can be a daunting task for even the most seasoned higher education professional.
Join host Tony Doody as he speaks with one of the co-authors of The Law of Higher Education, Dr. Barbara Lee, about current legal issues and their potential impact on our field over the next decade.
Some of the questions addressed in this episode include: How can we support first amendment rights and activism while protecting property rights and educational services? Why is the latest Supreme Court case dealing with affirmative action so important and what are the potential implications for Higher Education? What are the legal tensions surrounding the issue of guns on campus? In a post in loco parentis age, what responsibility do higher education professionals bear for poor behavior and decision making made by students? How should we best manage issues of freedom of speech, harassment, academic integrity, and privacy in a modern era of social media and technology? |
