Abstract
Arkansas law provides scholarship funds to students who meet specified academic criteria. This article examines the constitutional implications of making direct monetary payments to non-secular schools. It analyzes this practice in light of the Establishment Clause, and claims disparate impact discrimination under current administration of the scholarship program. The merits of a private cause of action under §1983 are addressed. The article concludes with the Libertarian perspective of the issues raised.
