Those Val Kilmer pre-Top Gun years, I remember a WW2 comedy where he played a Californian surfer who somehow joins up with the French Resistance, brilliance on celuloid.
I got a that form from Dean Huckabee my freshman year. My skirt was too short. I think it may have been a whole 3 inches above my knees. It was the end of the day so it didn’t really matter.
It seems like some of the violations fall under the area of some weird little faux pas that only exists at Harding. “Athletic shorts for casual wear”? Come on, dean, a mistake’s a mistake. Let it go.
And what the f**k kind of vague area for punishment is “hair”? Does this mean the hair is too short? Too long? The wrong color? Merely a poor style choice for the chosen wearer?
I was already tired today, but this makes me want to sit down and weep blood. Thanks, Harding. You douches.
Dan, allow me to clarify. Men were not allowed to have their hair longer than the top of their shirt collar. Although, brightly colored, unnatural dyes were frowned upon for both sexes.
As for the athletic wear, I think this pertained to the fact that you were allowed to wear shorter shorts for athletic activities only. On campus, girls were expected to cover their entire thigh and make sure shorts/skirts went to the top of the knee. You could not wear any shorts of any kind to class or before 2pm.

Wow. I guess ACU wasn’t so strict since guest chapel speakers often wore thongs and capes and no one minded…
…at least, I think that was chapel.

I got that stupid thing for having a banana-hammock in my hair. In my defense i didn’t even know it was there.

I think they didn’t want athletic shorts for casual wear just in case there were some guys who got some bulges from seeing some female kneecaps.
Then the dean would have to explain to the unfortunate student what an erection was, because, you know, we were obviously children.
CONFORM!
