Yearbook Controversy
In May 2006, six varsity baseball players who displayed the shocker hand gesture in their team photo were stripped of their sporting awards and varsity letters.

Stickers were handed out to parents wishing to cover up the photos.

Famous quotes containing the word controversy:
“And therefore, as when there is a controversy in an account, the parties must by their own accord, set up for right Reason, the Reason of some Arbitrator, or Judge, to whose sentence, they will both stand, or their controversy must either come to blows, or be undecided, for want of a right Reason constituted by Nature; so is it also in all debates of what kind soever.”
—Thomas Hobbes (1579–1688)
