School Uniforms are a good idea
I would like to start out by saying that I'm very happy with where the debate is going as well. Supporting Previous Rebuttals: 1. Whether the school supplies the uniform or not, there could still be much competition between articles of clothing. Once again, I would like to bring up the point that there are several different types of khakis and polos. You are contradicting yourself when you say that students would not be pressured to buy brand-name clothes, yet the market would not run through the school, therefore resulting in a decision that the students would have to make on their own. This allows room for students to get picked on for what they wear. 2. I realize that your sense of clothing does not say everything about your personality, however I would like to bring up the point that not everyone looks good in the same color and style of clothing. For example, I have light green eyes and blond hair. I do not look good in royal blue. I find it unfair to force students to wear articles of clothing that: A) Gainsay their usual style of clothing, ultimately going against there personality, and: B) They may not look the best in; possibly belittling their sense of style. 4. I don't know about you, but all I do in the morning is grab a pair of pants, a shirt, and get dressed. That takes me about thirty seconds total. I don't think that it takes a ridiculous amount of time to choose what you wear and get dressed. Even if you do take a lot of time to get dressed in the morning, I think that could easily be changed: just wake up a little earlier. Rebuttal: You say that uniforms encourage unity in a school. While I understand where you are coming from, I have to share that uniforms only show unity through appearance, but it is nearly impossible to unite a group of kids together, especially with so many different types of people. (There is no way to get your typical, popular, cheerleader, to befriend a stereotypical band geek, regardless of what they wear. No offense to cheerleaders or band geeks.)
