I’m with you. From the story, it also sounds like this young lady provided her own custom uniform rather than demanding that the school provide one for her. It appears the she came up with a sensible compromise between her religious beliefs and the school’s uniform requirements. I would hope that that a conservative Christian or Orthodox Jewish girl in a similar situation would be allowed a similar accomodation.

Christians are never allowed the same accommodations for anything because we get a lawsuit from the ACLU if we try and the ACLU gives a lawsuit to the school if they don’t try for Muslims.
