[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can’t stand the tradition of girls wearing white. I actually wrote my college application essay on this topic 25 years ago. Our colors were green and gold but the gowns were green (boys) and white (girls).[/quote] My school (in California, not the DMV area) colors were black and gold. At graduation boys wore black and girls wore an ugly shade of yellow that was supposed to be "gold." Anyone with a GPA above 4.0 wore white. A big part of my best friend's motivation for good grades was to be able to wear the white gown instead of the ugly yellow.[/quote]
