The V-word Girls: Suspensions Rescinded

WCBSTV.com reports: The one-day suspensions imposed on three high school girls for including the word "vagina" in a reading from "The Vagina Monologues" have been rescinded, one of the girls said.

Hannah Levinson, 16, said she and her friends received formal letters Tuesday from the school superintendent lifting the suspensions.

"He said the board is going to devise some steps to discuss censorship so it won't come up in the future," Levinson said. "They're going to clarify how the school can interpret the First Amendment."
