1986 Frasier made a lewd nomination speech full of sexual innuendo. The school district suspended him. The courts upheld the suspension saying the school district had the right of ìin loco parentisî which protects children, especially in a captive audience (those listening to the nomination speech), from explicit, indecent or lewd speech. In loco parentis means in place of the parent. The schools can discipline if behavior creates a material and substantial disruption. This calmed the previous ruling and came down on authority of school district to discipline students.
