Students of GW's Chatterbox take their case to the school board.
At issue is whether the school board can censor the paper to protect the district from liability.
As Danville Bureau Chief Justin McLeod reports there was a lot of talk but very few solutions.

[IN Q=The supression of truth]

((KATERINE LEMONS/TEACHER: THE SUPRESSION OF TRUTH IS MORALLY UNREHENSIBLE.)) [Runs03]
[OUT Q=morally unrehensible]


The controversy started about a month ago when the Chatter Box wanted to print articles dealing with sexually transmitted diseases, teen pregnancy, and interacial dating.
Some of the articles contained real names.
[SOT 17:06:19]
[IN Q=It personally offends me]

[OUT Q=I am proud of it]


The school board asked that real names not be used because of worries the district could be held liable.
Board members also wanted to print a letter in the magazine saying they have the power to censor the newspaper but weren't going to do that in this case.
[SOT 16:48:06]
[IN Q=Quite simply the letter is illegal]

((THOMSON SILVERS/STUDENT: QUITE SIMPLY PUT THE LETTER IS ILLEGAL. NO PERSON OR GROUP CAN BE REQUIRED TO PRINT AN ITEM THEY DON'T SEE AND DON'T AGREE WITH.)) [Runs06]
[OUT Q=don't agree with]


The school board argues it can censor the paper since the Chatterbox is part of the curriculum.
The Supreme Court does give school districts powers to censor under certain conditions.

[IN Q=And this issue has never]

((JACKIE WILSON/PARENT: AND THIS ISSUE HAS NEVER BEEN AN ISSUE BEFORE. AND THIS IS WHY I RAISE THE QUESTION, WHY IS THIS AN ISSUE NOW. I THINK IT IS REALLY SILLY. I THINK YOU HAVE BETTER THINGS TO DO THAN BE CONCERNED WITH THAT.)) [Runs10]
[OUT Q=concerned with that]


After more than a hour of debate, the school board agreed to allow the paper to go to print on Friday as long as their letter is printed.
The students must now decide whether to comply or continue to fight.

((At this point in the season, The Indians are 9 and 3 overall and 5 and 2 in the Hogohegee district.
That winning record is O-K but the Indians are not satisfied.)) ((JAMES SMITH/RURAL RETREAT PITCHER:)) ((Smith and Eric Callahan have dominated opposing batters from the mound. Between the two they have an E-R-A of point 6 and each have 51 strikeouts.
The defense has been shaky at times and despite having 5 players that hit over 380, The Indians have struggled at the plate.)) ((DYER JACKSON/RURAL RETREAT HEAD COACH:)) ((ERIC CALLAHAN/RURAL RETREAT PITCHER:)) ((But this team that's played together since the age of 9 is confident it will all fall into place when the district tournament rolls around.))
