IANAL, but near as I can tell, it&#x27;s still up in the air if (in the US) students have a constitutional right to be free of official retribution for off-campus speech.<p>There is some evidence that if the speech is truly off-campus and if it doesn&#x27;t cause a substantial disruption to school functions (see Tinker v. Des Moines), students are protected. Even the famous Supreme Court &quot;BONG HiTS 4 JESUS&quot; case was partially decided based on the speech being at a school-related event.<p>On the other hand, &quot;disruption&quot; is defined rather loosely sometimes, perhaps even lowering the bar to content that is viral, as long as it is also insulting. See, for instance, SJW v. Lee&#x27;s Summit.
