If a girl has good legs here they wear SHORT skirts. Like micro/mini minis from my generation. If a girl showed up in a knee length dress (I know, Church appropriate in certain parts of the country), she would be dressed like a grandma. And, I strongly suspect would wind up on the second list.
And again here for Prom (at least one year ago) girls wore short dresses to Prom. It was rare to see a long dress. So...bear in mind where in the country you are preffing.

Good point. On my campus a micro mini would be a SERIOUS faux pas, hottie or nottie, and I'm all about individuality, but on some campuses recruitment is a good time to try a hand at the art of blending and standing out at the same time. (Incidentally I went to high school in the same state as undergrad and our prom dresses were short, too...but wearing those sort of things to recruitment would have been bad news bears.)
