12-24-95. NYPaper: "Case Involving Free Speech And the Internet Is Settled." A dispute about free speech on the Internet has been settled out of Court here after a local school district admitted that a high school principal had wrongly reprimanded a student for lampooning his school on the World Wide Web. The school district apologized to Mr. Paul Kim for the punitive actions. "We now know our own boundaries," said Ann Oxrieder, the school district's spokeswoman. "The Internet is unexplored territory for schools and we now know that when a student uses his own equipment and on his own time, we should stay out of it." KID_zoo (6k)
