One rule that I disagreed with, had to do with the dress code. If any student was caught without a belt on they would be disciplined with a JUG, justice under God. JUG was basically a detention. If a student was caught wearing socks lower than the middle of there shins they would be issued a demerit. Five demerits would equal one JUG. One thing that really upset me was when it was hot outside and the students could not wear shorts. Regis was not an air conditioned school. You could imagine how hot it would get inside the building. To me the shorts rule was a rule that could cause health issues. Also, another thing that burst my bubble was when I would get a JUG for having the corner of my shirt un-tucked. .
I guess you really can't understand how horrible JUG was for having the corner of a shirt un-tucked. This one time I had to copy the entire chapter of Mark out of the Bible. I only had forty-five minutes to do it in. If I did not complete it in those forty -five minutes, I would have to come back the next day and try again, until I did it. If you could only imagine how horrible your writing hand felt after those forty-five minutes. This other time I had to clean the cafeteria up at the end of lunch for 20 days because I was caught with a cell phone in my locker. Cell phones were not even allowed in the building. I am more than willing to not bring my cell phone to class, in my opinion I think that they can be very rude and obnoxious, but they also provide much aid. .
Bathroom privileges was another stupid rule in my opinion. We weren't allowed to go during class and it was a hassle at times. The only time we were allowed to go was between classes, in which we had limited time to do so. This in most cases was not an ample amount of time because on top of that, if we were even a second late to class the result was an automatic detention. I felt I deserved the opportunity to use the restroom whenever I needed to.
