To balance this out, I note in this morning's Belgian newspaper De Morgen (link here (http://www.demorgen.be/dm/nl/1344/Onderwijs/article/detail/781024/2009/03/19/Kritiek-op-beslissing-van-Xaveriuscollege-om-gothic-te-verbieden.dhtml), but it's in Dutch...) that a junior college got ticked on the fingers for an overly vague description of what was and wasn't allowed to be worn by students on campus, in connection with the popularity of the gothic style. It was only the "children's rights commission" but they were pretty straight with the basic principle: one of personal and individual expression.
Hope things get better, though sometimes I have to understand that it's always going to be a long haul.
