When a student takes to a social media platform to defame a classmate or uses profane language to describe a faculty member, what can you, as a school leader, do? Join Suzanne Eckes, a lawyer, educator, and author, for this webinar, which will highlight several cases that have addressed students’ off-campus Internet speech. The webinar—held on Wednesday, March 11, from 3:30–4:30 p.m.—will also examine how much authority school officials have in monitoring this type of expression.
