Witters v. Washington Department of Services for the Blind  

Definición

  • Witters v. Washington Department of Services for the Blind (1986) addressed the question of whether a student's use of state disability funds at a religious college would violate the Establishment Clause in the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. In a unanimous decision, the U.S. Supreme Court held that a student's receiving such financial assistance and using it at a religious college did not amount to the kind of direct subsidy prohibited by the Establishment Clause.
