A new law (formerly S.B. 526) in North Carolina requires public schools to establish programs to prevent bullying and harassment [1]. The law requires schools to address physical, verbal, and electronic harassment and to implement procedures for reporting, investigating, and preventing such behavior. The new law states that having an unpopular viewpoint does not constitute bullying or harassment.
