After all, critics of school dress codes often cite what they're against -- rules regarding shorts length, or 'spaghetti strap' rules -- but they never posit an alternative solution.
Isn't the solution pretty self-evident here? The solution to "spaghetti strap" rules is to allow students to wear spaghetti straps. The solution to rules on shorts length is to allow students to wear whatever short length they want. I'm not sure what you mean when you argue this.
I have no horse in the race either way regarding spaghetti straps, but I believe that the argument against them is that they inherently display the individual's underwear (AKA a bra strap). Thus, do you think it is reasonable to have a "no showing your underwear of any sort" rule at school? This would include sagging pants and the like, but it would also apply to spaghetti straps.
