Every since we were freshman, we've all looked forward to graduation. We've been looking forward to carrying out the Glen Allen tradition of walking across the stage in white and teal. The recent decision of Glen Allen administration to replace the beautiful tradition of teal and white gowns, takes away from our diversity and completely removes a very sentimental traditional. Additionally, wearing all teal/black gowns is an eye-sore. The small group of individuals who believe this new policy is essential should not impact our tradition when the majority of Glen Allen students wish to walk across the stage in teal and white.
