SC Ban on Confederate Clothes

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060522/ap_on_re_us/confederate_clothing

It is always interesting to ask what people think about bans on dress or political activities associated with schools and workplace environments. What do you think? Should schools be able to ban wearing emblems like the confederate flag or swastikas? Where is the line?

Personally, I think a school is a unique government environment in that its primary function is to educate and once items of clothing get in the way of that mission it is fine to ban them.
