USA Today (1/13, Martin) reports, "School districts nationwide have their eyes on a federal court case in Pennsylvania, which will address whether students should be allowed to wear breast-cancer awareness bracelets that have become a controversy in multiple states. The bracelets - which proclaim 'I (heart symbol) boobies!' - have been banned in some districts." USA Today adds, "The case arose after two middle-school girls were prohibited from wearing the bracelets in the Easton (Pa.) Area School District in October." USA Today adds, "The Easton case is the only one the ACLU has initiated, but" ACLU lawyer Mary Catherine Roper "said she has corresponded with colleagues in Oregon, Utah, Wyoming, Nevada and Delaware."
