PLU students participated in Skype lecture by Prof. Brandeis |
When her class started to discuss "Bong Hits 4 Jesus" and the constitutional issues involved, Keli called Prof. Brandeis and asked if he would speak to them. Having done a Skype lecture before, Prof. Brandeis knew it would be easy to arrange. During the lecture students were very engaged in the interaction and asked a number of questions about this pivotal free expression case which concerns the rights of students in schools.
Prof. Brandeis also did a Skype lecture last semester. He was invited in November 2010 to lecture via Skype to a high school in Brooklyn on Morse v. Frederick and students rights issues. He hopes to continue this kind of technology outreach to high school and college students about constitutional and other legal issues.
