Abstract:

The Confederate flag is viewed as heritage by some, a symbol of hate by others. When this symbol appears on school grounds, how should administrators react? Alford discusses the \"legal implications of a school board's decision to prohibit a display of Confederate symbols.\" She also analyzes several federal circuit court Confederate cases and discusses how \"this body of law applies to North Carolina schools.\"

Abstract:

Hill Greene of Boone was ordered to take down his six-hundred-foot American flag after it was found to be in violation of City Ordinance V-4. The ordinance states that no over-sized business signs can be erected along the stretch of highway where Greene's Phillips 66 service station is located. One of Greene's employees, Eddie Cole, wrote to the Watauga DEMOCRAT and the story received national attention. Reporters from CBS, the White House, and even GLOBE, a tabloid out of Canada, flooded Greene's station to cover the story. On June 25th, the city announced it would not be enforcing the regulation in Greene's case, and his flag was allowed to continue flying. The ordinance will probably now be amended.
