Dialogue: Prayer in School

On this episode of Dialogue, aired first on December 15, 1994, guests discuss a lawsuit brought by the ACLU challenging prayer services at the Grangeville High School graduation, and debate whether prayer should be allowed in public schools.

At the time, U.S. Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich was calling for his colleagues in the House of Representatives to vote for an amendment to the U.S. Constitution that would have allowed prayer in schools.

Guests:
• Beverly Harris, former Grangeville High School student, school prayer opponent and plaintiff in lawsuit
• Angie Cole, Capitol High School student and school prayer supporter
• Professor Stephen Shaw, Northwest Nazarene College
