"If you thought your school dress code was strict, consider the BYU-Idaho student who showed up to take a test on Tuesday wearing skinny jeans and was told that she wouldn&amp;#x27;t be allowed in because her pants were too tight. &amp;quot;I got in line and the guy said that I couldn&amp;amp;#8217;t take a test because my pants were too tight,&amp;amp;#8221; BYU-I senior Rachel Vermillion told her campus student newspaper, the Scroll. &amp;amp;#8220;I thought he was joking at first.&amp;amp;#8221; But there at BYU-I&amp;#x27;s testing center was a sign hanging that read, &amp;quot;If your pants are tight enough to see the shape of your leg, your pants are too tight. The CES Dress and Grooming Standards state that: &amp;amp;#8216;Clothing is inappropriate when it is . . . formfitting.&amp;amp;#8217; Skin tight clothing is NOT appropriate attire.&amp;amp;#8221; She was sent home, though the school later clarified that the testing center did not communicate with them and that while tight clothing is against the honor code, skinny jeans in particular are acceptable. According to the Houston Chronicle, they posted the following statement on their Facebook page, essentially overturning the testing center&amp;#x27;s ban: &amp;quot;Wondering if skinny jeans are allowed on campus? They are. BYU-Idaho&amp;#x27;s longstanding dress &amp;amp; grooming standards promote principles of modesty and restrict formfitting clothing, but skinny jeans are not singled out or prohibited. In addition, the Testing Center issue reported in Scroll has been corrected and is no longer in force.&amp;quot; So, what do you ladies make of this whole situation? Do you think the testing center was wrong to ban skinny jeans in the first place? Do any of you Mormon readers regularly wear &amp;#x27;em? And are you happy to see the ban overturned? Discuss!
