The Earls Case and the Student Drug Testing Debate: Debating Supreme Court Decisions

By Kathiann M. Kowalski

Lindsay Earls, a high school student in Oklahoma, believed that random drug testing was an invasion of her privacy. School officials argued that testing was an important tool in the fight against drugs. Author Kathiann Kowalski examines both sides of the controversy and explains what the Supreme Court decided and why. In addition, readers will learn how they can participate in a moot court exercise, a mock judicial proceeding that will help them understand the case and the justice system.
