  SURVEY
Do you think the student should have been allowed to wear the Bush-bashing T-shirt?
A Broward County high school student's Bush bashing T-shirt first grabbed the attention of his classmates, then administrators, then the ACLU. Now, the county school board has gotten involved.

Justin Cambest, 18, a Nova High School student, wore a shirt calling President George W. Bush an international terrorist.

Some students were offended and Cambest was told to remove the shirt, turn it inside out or take a suspension.

Cambest did something else. He called the ACLU, which threatened to sue.

Now, the Broward County School Board has agreed to rewrite portions of the student code to give students greater free speech protections.
