[JURIST] A federal appeals court in Chicago has thrown out a lawsuit filed by student journalists at Governors State University [official website] who claimed that the Dean of Student Affair's demand to review their newspaper before it went to press was a violation of their First Amendment rights. The US Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit [official website] ruled Monday that Dean Patricia Carter could not be held responsible for "constitutional uncertainties" and that the University had some discretion to regulate the content to be published because it supported the paper. Read the opinion [PDF]. The journalists, now all graduates of the university, plan to appeal. AP has more. The Student Press Law Center provides extensive background materials on the case.
