A school district in rural Texas is again going to try to randomly drug test all students. The leadership has decided that if it is challenged that they will set the legal precedent and win. That's possible, of course, if they take it all the way to the Supreme Court (who has provided pretty clear guidance in Vernonia and Earls). Good luck with it, I say, and good luck in the next re-election when the voters of your district find out how much "setting the precedent" costs.
