Prior Review

In my opinion, prior review is a good thing. A school newspaper needs someone to make sure that everything is school appropriate. It is for school, not for fun so topics that are inappropriate in school should not be in the paper. Sometimes raising a controversial idea can be a good thing to make students think, but school officials have to make the final decision. If there was not any prior review, then anything and everything could make it into the school newspaper. People may be offended by some topics and things could get out of hand. Everything needs rules to keep things under control, including school newspapers, even in not everyone is happy.
