stop staring at my clavicles




See those two little bumps? No, not those two little bumps. The two little bumps between Halle Berry's shoulders. They're called clavicles. And they are featured prominently in the new revision to our school dress code. In fact, I would have to send young Ms. Berry down to the Dean's office for a detention.

Shirts or tops . . . must cover the chest up to the clavicles at all times.

Quite a few interesting discussions in class today, let me tell you. Obviously, many of the kids think the rule is stupid. And it is a little stupid. But it wouldn't be there if the old rule wasn't getting broken all the time. And this current "revision" to the dress code is our attempt at avoiding school uniforms.

And I hope it works. I really do. I know it really comes down to one thing, though: a willingness on the part of both the students and the faculty. Teachers need to be willing to enforce the dress code at all times. And students need to be willing to respect the dress code. Will that happen?

Who knows. I guess this issue has been floating around for quite some time now. Time will tell.

Now back to Mr. Neff's class, young lady, and wear something more appropriate tomorrow.
