| Abstract | This report on a preventive law institute held in Texas in 1981 includes an introduction, three papers, a summary of discussions, and a concluding statement. In the introduction Christiane Hyde Citron defines preventive law as decision making that takes constitutional and case law into consideration and that includes four basic steps: (1) anticipation of legal challenges; (2) evaluation of legal merits of challenges; (3) consideration of policy issues raised by potential challenges; and (4) modification in response to the first three steps. In "State Regulation of Textbook Selection and Private Schools," Mark Yudof cautions that educational law is crisis oriented, constitutional law is fuzzy, and the public sector lacks market constraints. As a result, more constitutional challenges to school library and textbook decisions have occured during the past 10 years than in the previous 100 years. Outlined are the basic regulations for textbook selection; court decisions are cited, and recommendations are made for established, fair procedures to avoid court litigation. State education agencies must apply evenness of control and equal application of rules toward public and private schools. "Advocates Perspective on PL 94-142", by Jim Todd, presents the perspective of the suer in handicapped student litigation. This is usually a publicly funded advocacy agency which has an interest in resolving conflicts without litigation. A list of suggestions to prevent handicapped student litigation is provided. James Deatherage, in "School Districts Perspective on PL 94-142," outlines the legal framework governing the education of the handicapped; the sources and causes of conflicts; preventive actions; and alternative approaches for preventing litigation. "Group Interaction and Consensus Building" summarizes the major topics of discussion during the institute. In the concluding statement the practice of preventive law is presented as an important tool with which educators can control their futures. (MD) |
