Gay? Fine By Me T-shirt gets student sent home from school

Heathure Farnham was sent from from her school in Ihaca, NY for wearing a t-shirt that had the phrase “Gay? Fine by Me”.  Heathure was informed by the principal that the message of her t-shirt was inappropriate for school. She was given the option to find another shirt, alter the shirt she was wearing, or leave school. Heathure choose to leave school! Frusterated for not being able to wear any t-shirt she wants, Heathure called the media to get attention on the issue.

The principal made it clear that the school’s dress code prohibits “disruptive” clothing or hairstyles and that it is a judgement call on behalf of school administrators to determine what is considered disruptive clothing.  Those students who wore clothing that was deemed disruptive are to alter or change their clothing or subject to disciplinary action.  Heathure believes that the shirts message did not demean any group or individual.
