"'You do realize you’re going straight to detention,' I say to my lab partner Gavin Holt. He’s wearing a white button-down shirt adorned with his signature bow-tie—all the boys wear ties. It’s a requirement, though Gavin is the only guy on campus who insists on the bow variety. But this time he’s gone off the rails and paired it with plaid pajama pants. Strictly against dress code. Torrey-Wells Academy, named after its two founders, has a bit of a double standard when it comes to attire. Guys have to wear slacks and a tie to classes, chapel, and to the dining hall; girls can wear pretty much whatever they want as long as it covers the necessary parts. For example, I’m wearing sweatpants and a ratty TWA sweatshirt—my daily uniform—and am in no danger of violating the code. Apparently, when the school opened up to girls back in the seventies, the board found altering the academy handbook too much of a bother. Which is fine with me." -They're Watching You by Chelsea Ichaso
Oh man, that's kinda funny, because girls are usually the ones getting hit with the dress code! Must read more now! What about you guys? Happy reading!
