SCOTUS and Social Media: What Employers Can Learn from the Court’s Recent Ruling about a Student’s Posts Thursday, July 1, 2021
On June 23, 2021, the Supreme Court of the United States issued its decision in
Mahanoy Area School District v. B.L., No. 20-255 (2021), holding that a student’s off-campus social media posts critical of her school constituted free expression protected by the First Amendment of the United States Constitution.
Although the events giving rise to the decision involved a high school’s suspension of a student from the school’s junior varsity cheerleading squad following the student’s colorful social media postings criticizing the school for her non-selection for a varsity team, the case has relevance for public-sector and private employers that are increasingly called upon to determine whether employment terminations or other disciplinary actions taken in response to employee social media postings are justified.
Students are largely free to speak their minds off campus without fear of school punishment, even if social mediaâs boundless reach blurs the line between living room and classroom.
With a few caveats, thatâs the gist of a highly anticipated Supreme Court ruling handed down recently in Mahanoy Area School District v. B.L., a case that tested the limits of public school discipline.
An 8-1 majority held that Mahanoy Area High School in Pennsylvania violated Brandi Levyâs First Amendment rights when it kicked her off the junior varsity cheerleading team for raising her middle finger and dropping the f-bomb in a weekend Snapchat story shared with a friend group that included some teammates.
