Not only Demetra felt humiliated by the incident.
As a result of the school’s uniform policy, many more students have felt expelled. All of the other girls at Claire’s prom were similarly stranded.
She almost was expelled from school after breaking the school’s finger rule while riding home from prom with her boyfriend. Despite the fact that her skirt was deemed to be excessively short by the prom committee, she was allowed to attend. Her night of humiliation and shame was far from over; on the contrary, it had only just begun.
