New dress code for prom causes headaches

The administration had the best intentions when they decided to step up enforcement on the Prom dress code. The goal of this code is to keep the attire appropriate to let everyone enjoy the dance. While I don’t want to see more skin than I have to, the enforcement of this code is going to cause a lot more drama than it is worth. Students are outraged about the dress code, and keeping Prom attire appropriate doesn’t seem worth this student discontent. This problem expands even more when students, who spend $70 on a ticket and even more on an outfit, are turned away the night of the dance. I understand the need for a dress code during the school day, when revealing clothing can take the focus away from learning, but Prom is about having fun and not about learning. The code just makes students upset, and keeping clothing appropriate doesn’t seem worth its discontent.
