"Two students are suing the University of Hawaii for violating their First Amendment rights after administrator prevented them from distributing copies of the U.S. Constitution demonstrating a frightening lack of knowledge about the very legal document they were attempting to censor."
"Administrators further clarified their level of respect for students free speech rights, making comments like, This isnt really the 60s anymore, and people cant really protest like that anymore, according to the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education.
The First Amendment has not been modified since the 1960s, however, and robustly protects the rights of students at public universities to hold non-disruptive protests, speak their mind and distribute literature.
Administrators also maintained that university policy took precedent over Constitutional rights, according to the complaint."
