A famous Supreme Court case involving this issue occurred in 1988 in Hazelwood v. Kuhlmeier. The principal of Hazelwood East High School prohibited two topics from being printed in the school newspaper. Hazelwood East students brought the case to court, arguing that their First Amendment right to free speech had been violated. In this case, the court ruled that the principal did not violate the students’ free speech right. The court pointed out that the school newspaper was not a "public forum," and that, therefore, students did not have the same First Amendment rights as other journalists.
