Princeton High School students are getting the word out that children have rights, and those rights should be protected. 




Awareness of one’s rights on campus is both critical and beneficial. Students who are aware
of the legal rights protecting them will be able to recognize when they are being taken
advantage of and be able to defend themselves accordingly.
Religion plays a prominent role in many students’ lives and protecting the right to practice an
individual’s religion is an important part of George Mason University’s policy. Numerous
spiritual groups exist on campus and knowing how a student is protected is helpful. Most
importantly, Mason cannot inhibit particular religious groups or advance any religious
doctrine. Since Mason is a public institution, its actions are limited by the First Amendment.
The Free Exercise Clause and Establishment Clause protect individuals from religious
interference as well as being forced to adhere to a specific religion.
