Assignment:
In a minimum of 150 words, APA formatting and paragraphed, discuss the following. Make sure you address each question in your discussion. (Please do not attempt to answer the questions without researching and reading the cases first) Vernonia School District v. Acton (1995), the Court has upheld random drug testing of high school student athletes. In Board of Education of Independent School District No. 92 of Pottawatomie County et al. v. Earls (2002), the Court extended that ruling to middle and high school students participating in any extracurricular activity. Discuss the reasoning that the testing is a minimal intrusion? Are the interests of the government in this situation important enough to override the individual privacy protection? Should this ruling apply to college students as well? Why or why not?
