| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Decision: Tinker v. Des Moines (1969) | Armbands are symbolic speech that should be allowed in schools because they did not cause any disruption to the learning environment. |
| Decision: Bethel School District v. Fraser | The school could ban lewd or offensive language without violating free speech |
| Impact: Tinker v. Des Moines | As long as the exercise of free speech(expression) doesn't disrupt learning, students have First Amendment rights in school. This case also established the Tinker Test, which asks the question "does it disrupt learning." |
| Impact: Bethel School District v. Fraser | Students have free speech at school, but this case gives school officials more power to limit free speech to prevent disruptions to learning. |
| Impact: Texas v. Johnson | Actions can be covered under the First Amendment if they are conveying a message. Governments do not have the right to decide which opinions are too offensive to express. Laws that prohibit freedom of expression are unconstitutional. |

| Dissent | the justices in the minority that disagree with the opinion/minority |
