Teacher Drug Testing

from Town Square Hosted by Beth-Ann

Click here to listen Students at UH Manoa say there isn't enough security to keep them and their belongings safe. After a spate of burglaries at UH earlier this year plus violent episodes on a few college campuses nationwide - and despite the Hawaii state auditor's report and a proposal to the Honolulu Police Department to have off-duty officers patrol the campus - the question remains how campus security will protect UH Manoa, its students and faculty. Tonight students from the UH Manoa newspaper, Ka Leo, have their say. Guests: Tracy Chan, Associate News Editor and Hannah Miyamoto, Commentary Editor. They may have voted for it as part of their contract, but some teachers and others, including the ACLU, say the teachers' union was pressured into accepting random drug testing and that it will be costly and not effective. This week we'll speak with Graham Boyd, the national director of the ACLU Drug Law Reform Project and Pam Lichty of Drug Policy Forum of Hawaii - and you.
