While a private school would be justified in such an action, I believe that the public university is out of bounds here.
JACKPOT! A thread with both "cheerleader" and "Hooters" in the title! : )
A public university has just as much reason to require standards of behavior for certain positions as any other organization. This girl does not have a born right to be a cheerleader for ETSU... she has a right to work wherever she wants... but she also has the responsibility to accept the consequences of that choice.
LOL! Maybe I'd better not comment since I visit that Hooters quite often!
One thing I've noticed about Hooters is that liberals, particularly liberal women, get all bent out of shape over it. They huff and puff about how horrible and "sexist" Hooters is. But if you mention strip clubs or porn, they don't have much negative to say, and instead focus on the "right of each woman" to choose to be a stripper, a porn actress, etc.
It's almost as if they hate Hooters for being kind of innocent. It's more like a beauty pageant (which they also hate) to them. Hooters features cute girls in cute outfits, but is a far cry from anything sleazy. Stuff that's actually sleazy doesn't bother liberals as much.
But that's typical, I guess. Positive Christian teachings about sex, sex roles, and homosexuality infuriate liberals, but they're quite tolerant towards Islamic rules about veils, wife beating, etc. I guess as long as something's anti-Western, it's okay.
I, frankly, don't care.
You know, they really do need to create a Hooters-type restaurant with hot waitresses in the 35-45 range.
It's easy....Mrs. Bartow is flat and jealous.
Cool. I actually ate at that Hooters when I went to Dukes Fest 2004!
You can wear a teensy-weensy uniform as a cheerleader, but it's verbotten to wear a teensy-weensy uniform as a waitress? How re-g-d-diculous!
Kicking a woman off the cheerleading squad because she works at Hooters? I wonder how many ETSU cheer routines have the gals swinging their hips suggestively?
ETSU's loss.
