A DISPUTE
Is a school district’s internal mail system
a public or a nonpublic forum? May one
organization be granted exclusive use of
it? Rival teachers’ unions from Indiana
argued those questions before the U.S.
Supreme Court last week in a suit the
national unions are watching closely.

A TREND
A decline in the emphasis on evolution
in biology textbooks that began in the
970’s is continuing, according to an
analysis of 102 textbooks published since
the turn of the century. But observers
disagree on the cause and one questions
the study’s methodology.
