Re: A small victory for Students
Man they did that in 1996 (or so) at my school when my bro was going through it. Strip searched every one in the room for a "supposed," missing 100 bucks. Man the parents of those kids just about came and tore the roof off that school after that.

The school's search of Redding's backpack and outer clothes was permissible, the court said. But the justices said that officials went too far when they asked to search her underwear.
A 1985 Supreme Court decision that dealt with searching a student's purse has found that school officials need only reasonable suspicions, not probable cause. But the court also warned against a search that is "excessively intrusive."

EDIT: I don't actually agree with the Supreme Court in Morse v. Frederick. I agree with the dessenting opinion offered by Justice Stevens when he wrote: "Admittedly, some high school students (including those who use drugs) are dumb. Most students, however, do not shed their brains at the schoolhouse gate, and most students know dumb advocacy when they see it. The notion that the message on this banner would actually persuade either the average student or even the dumbest one to change his or her behavior is most implausible."
