Case: Piercings
Mrs. Gala is a high school teacher with 22 years at the same school. She has her nose pierced and although the piercing is discrete it is still noticeable. School policy is against facial jewelry for students, but does not have the same rule for faculty. Several students have argued that the rule is unjust because teachers are suppose to be role models. What course of action should take place if any?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I do not think that a teacher should have a nose piercing if students are not allowed. This is not being a good role model for students to follow. If the students do not like the rule and feel that it is unjust then they should set up a petition asking for the rule to be changed and take it to the principal's office. However, if the rule states that the teacher can wear it, then there is no current action that can be taken with her except to try to get the rule changed. |

Comments: I agree. I try never to tell my students one thing and I do another. Its not setting a good example. I do not believe that the teacher is a bad role model for her choice, but if a rule is in place for kids, I believe it needs to be the same for teachers. |

Comments: I disagree with this solution. Piercings do not make teachers bad role models and teachers don't have to abide by rules made for students just because the students argue that it's "unfair." |

Comments: I agree. If the students are expected to have their appearance a particular way, teachers should generally abide by the same rules. Especially with older students, it is much harder to expect them to not point out the double standard. |
