  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!)
The students are old enough to understand that an adult can make their own decisions with piercing their body. If it is a discrete nose ring, then I believe it is appropriate for the teacher to wear it. Students shouldn't be taught that body jewelry is a bad thing, they just need to understand that it is not appropriate for younger people, for example even high school students.

Comments: I agree, but I believe the student's issue is coming from the discrepancy in the school's policy. They feel disallowing students facial jewelry, but allowing their employees is a contradiction.
