Thursday, October 7th

The following article was in the September issue of The Tiger Print. Read the article (even if you already have) and respond to it below. What do you think? Do you agree? Disagree? Consider all perspectives of the article while you respond.


I do agree with what the author of the article is saying. Clothing and fashion is just another way for a person to express themselves. By creating a dress code, the school is just limiting our creativity a bit more. Especially the whole covering your shoulder thing with something larger than a spaghetti strap. Shoulders are shoulders. We all have them... So whats the point? If we want to express ourselves by wearing high-waisted shorts, I think we should be able to. The author is also right about the teacher comments. I mean there's a difference between fashionable and inappropriate. And I admit some people do cross the line sometimes but that doesn't mean a teacher should be rude about it. Teachers are supposed to be setting a role model for us and they insult other people, why should we want to be like them? Especially during this period in a girl's life when they are most insecure. You definitely don't want to be put down by the adults around you.
