After a year of thinking about it, the University of Texas System Board of Regents appears to have decided to keep a policy called "prior review," which requires that a university-approved adviser review student publications before they're published. The decision surprised many students; they'd thought a new plan meant to scrap the policy, which the Student Press Law Center says is one of the last of its kind not to be scrapped. Specifics about the plan will be discussed tomorrow in a Regents executive session, the Daily Texan reports.
