Supreme Court to hear Solomon case

The U.S. Supreme Court has granted certiorari in a case involving a group of laws schools who challenged the constitutionality of a funding restriction for schools that don't accommodate military recruiters on campus. The government appealed a decision by the Third Circuit that held, against the dissent of Judge Aldisert, that the Solomon Amendment infringed the schools' First Amendment rights.
