The United States Constitution is called a "living document" because some feel that it was originally designed to be modified, amended and reinterpreted throughout time in order to evolve with the changes of the society where it was implemented. It is something that has and can continue to change as society progresses.

In the tinker v. des moines and hazel v. Kuhlmeier cases, how did the students' form of expression differ? which topics were the
Vesnalui [34]

In Tinker v. Des Moines, the Supreme Court ruled that the wearing of a black armband in protest of the Vietnam War was not a substantial disruption of the school environment and was therefore protected speech.

It is the first major case to determine the speech rights of students.

In Hazelwood v. Kuhlmeier, the Supreme Court placed a limit on the speech rights of students when it ruled that it was permissible for a school to censor the actions of a school newspaper.

This is important as it provides a limit on the speech rights of students.

At issue in both cases are how the speech is disruptive to the school environment and many cases since then have hinged on the importance of the speech (protest in Tinker v. spreading gossip in Hazelwood) and the manner in which the speech is undertaken.
