Censorship in Schools This included primarily the banning of books, censorship of ideas that go against the school's purpose, and censorship of what some may deem to be offensive. Books are also banned because they represent establishments in a light that such establishments do not appreciate.

Banning Books Multiple banned book controversies every year  Usually overturned  Often banned for sexual, racist, or anti- establishment related material

Well Known Banned Books 1984 – banned in some countries for displaying anti-governmental sentiment  Similar books with similar bannings: Fahrenheit 451, The Giver, Brave New World The Anarchist Cookbook – banned because it contained recipes for bombs and other weapons

Well Known Banned Books The Chocolate War – banned because of sexual themes, as well as the display of private schools in a negative light  Pretty much every Robert Cormier book has been banned at some point  Grisham & Duqesne As I Lay Dying, Catcher in the Rye, Tom Sawyer, An American Tragedy – all were banned at one point.

Censorship At CMU Carnegie Mellon attempted (and succeeded) in showing a pornographic film  Some (mostly parents, probably) complained, because their student activity money was going toward the cause Maryland University had a similar situation  This time, the government complained because MU is a public school (receives govt funding)

Raises Questions Should an institution represent the ideals of those who fund it? Is this even possible?  Usually not possible, since ideals vary Any solution?  Use money for anything that is popular (thus not a waste) People do not have to take part unless they wish  Money is then put towards no specific ideal
