    College campuses can be political hotbeds. And that has some members of Congress thinking they should get involved. Some Republicans are pushing a measure through the House of Representatives meant to ensure that students hear "dissenting viewpoints" in class and are protected from retaliation because of their politics or religion. Colleges say the measure isn't needed, but with Congress providing billions of dollars to higher education, they are worried.

Jencks and his colleagues asked where the additional money...

    Judge tosses right-to-know abortion law By Susan Spencer-Wendel, Palm Beach Post Staff Writer Tuesday, September 17, 2002 WEST PALM BEACH -- In a blow to anti-abortion activists, a Palm Beach County judge struck down a law mandating what abortion doctors must tell and provide potential patients. The decision, by Circuit Judge Ronald Alvarez, further freezes the law known as the Women's Right-to-Know Act. The act, challenged legally since its passage in 1997, dictated a generic checklist of things doctors must tell a patient with little regard for her individual situation. It required doctors to tell women the nature and risks...
