+1

The next chapter will be made of all the people’s reactions on websites…Well the girl in the white dress is showing cleavage, and the girl in blue has bare shoulders, etc. I am not only amazed that this happened, but at how many people are agreeing with it.

Too bad the principal apologized after the damage had been done.

That’s what happens when people uphold the rules, and you have stupid-ass rules.

As much as I agree, I see this as an exercise in learning for the leaders, so in that sense it has value.

I found it interesting that for the sake of clarity the policy was actually made more stringent after the event.

Before it read that dresses should reach near the knee and the new policy will read that dresses must reach beyond the knee. As far as landmarks go, the knee is pretty clear and the alternative would be something in the form of “within 3 inches of the knee” – but I think it is ironic that the actual policy is now becoming more stringent. :crazy:

I noticed the same thing. I think it was meant to take the judgment out of it, and potentially, to save face — that the policy wasn’t a problem, it was the description.

Really? Unbelievable. Next they will want all the boys to wear white shirts.

All that I can say is that Tooele is a very strange place.

I’ve been there, and I agree. It’s isolated geographically as much as any Utah city, and that alone breeds extremism naturally. Seriously, nobody in their right mind would choose to live there unless their job demanded it. The area is flat-out ugly; its picture probably is in some dictionary to show the meaning of “desolation”.
