You don't have many rights on school grounds.

You always have constitutional rights . . . regardless of school grounds. If they're denied, there are plenty of lawyers and organizations like the ACLU and others that would take the case to court and win.

Saw the story on Fox at lunch.
I understand what they are doing, but I'm with the girls - they don't have control over the crowd.
Someone that doesn't like you could cheer just to keep you from getting your diploma. I think the punishment is going to the wrong people. If they are that serious about it, then have people in the crowd watching for the ones that make the noise and make them do community service - not the graduate!
Just dumb.

I say that it is completely illegal and that the students would win. You cannot control what a crowd will do, so the signing of the contract is dumb dumb dumb dumb.

IF the contract stipulates that "they" as the graduate don't make any noise, then that's fine, but to "control the audience" - - no way......they can't be responsible for a crowd.
