Personally, as someone footing the bill for back to school clothes right now - I wish they all had to wear the same uniform. I hate uniforms (I fight authority, authority always wins....) but "business casual" would cover it. 5 collared shirts and kakis. Done.

For instance, did you know that the "zero tolerance" rule regarding knives in schools extends to the cafeteria, where the only utensil choices are plastic forks and plastic spoons? Ever tried cutting a chicken patty/mystery meat with a cheesy plastic fork? Actually, I have found that the spoon is much more effective at cutting. But seriously, a plastic butter knife?
Have you ever seen a fairly good shank made out of a plastic spoon? I have....
The school I went to lacked metal detectors and such, and being in a rural area.....there were probably more knives in the school than people to complain about them. This was only a decade ago mind you....
