Student Research Internship Agreement with Cancer Center
📅 October 27, 2026

PULL THE DOCUMENT: For item 7.2(c), retrieve the ‘Fox Chase Cancer Center TRIP Intitiative.pdf’ attachment from the official agenda link before the October 27, 2026 vote.

⚖️ Legal Hook: Parental Rights – Consent for Student Programs
MONITOR (LEVEL 4)
Public Comment Rules Restrict Content to ‘School Business’
📅 October 27, 2026
The board’s public comment guidelines, listed under item 1.6, authorize the presiding officer to terminate a speaker’s statement if it is deemed ‘unrelated to school business.’ This content-based restriction on speech in a limited public forum creates a risk of viewpoint discrimination in violation of the First Amendment.
Intake Action

MONITOR: The public comment policy under item 1.6 allows termination of comments ‘unrelated to school business.’ Monitor application of this rule for viewpoint discrimination. No pre-vote action required as this is a standing policy.
