Federal and California law limit how school administrators and faculty can step in to change the content of student publications.
To do so is censorship, but the recent case of The Bulletin at CSU Dominguez Hills is not clear cut.Did Caron censor The Bulletin? Southern California college media advisers have mixed views.
“The actual technical matter of taking it down off the website should have been left to the students,” Baranger said.“[The cover] doesn't break any legal rules,” said Mike Hiestand, senior legal counsel at the Student Press Law Center.There would need to be significant riot-level campus disruptions, he said, for the words to fall into the category of unprotected speech. And the words are not obscene or libelous.
Caron said time was of the essence in his decision to remove the issue. Advisers say stopping and talking about an important decision could have opened up other options. “I know that in this case… [the slurs were] a really hurtful thing for my community. I don't think it should be censored,” said Katheryne Menendez, recent editor-in-chief of The Corsair, the student newspaper at Santa Monica College.
