L9827 Educational Policy Making and the Courts

  • Share/email this course
  • Print

Beginning with the school desegregation decrees issued by the federal courts in the wake of Brown v. Board of Education, the federal and state courts have been called upon to consider a range of asserted educational rights and to oversee far-reaching institutional reforms that bear little relationship to traditional judicial remedies. This course examines the legal and political justifications for the courts' role in making educational policy and reforming public education institutions, as well as the courts' capacity to undertake these functions.
