Dress codes in public school SHOULD be unconstitutional beyond the "Don't bare anything indecent" line (which is apparently a g-string according to Scalia, so who knows?). Then again, my parents didn't raise me to toe the line and listen to the man. When my dad was in high school (late 60s - early 70s) he got detention ALL THE TIME because he purposely kept his hair just long enough to touch his collar. When my boyfriend was in prep school, he got suspended for creatively interpeting the dress code and shaving all but the top of his hair. They've both gone on to be succesful but they still know a stupid rule when they see it.
I just hope all of you are "willing to face the consequences" when you get a speeding ticket or a lame disorderly conduct ticket rather than asking a lawyer to find you a loophole. However, like RC said, most of us are elitist suburban assholes and I'm sure you'll be calling a lawyer wanting an exception to be made for you.
