FirstAmendment folly
No more writing exactly what you think

HANNAH DOW/Daily
series of satirical articles regarding student-athletes published in The Every
L.~Three Weekly in 2005 raised serious questions about First Amendment
rights in student publications. When the Athletic Department complained
about three articles concerning student-athletes, including a story about Olympic
swimmer Michael Phelps titled "Phelps to Major In Pussy," the University Activities
Center was brought into meetings to resolve the matter ("E3W content criticized"
3/31/2005).
Because the UAC provides funding from tuition to various campus groups includ-
ing the E3W, concerns were raised about possible censorship of the publication.
Though the UAC officials did not threaten to cut the E3W's funding, they stated that
they had the right to do so if they felt it necessary. However, Mark Goodman, the
executive director of Student Press Law center at the time, made it clear that any
such action would be a clear violation of the First Amendment.
