Anti-proms and Alternative Proms
Anti-proms are private, unofficial proms that are privately created, outside the control of the school, usually by people who disagree with their school's prom policies.
Adult proms for gay and lesbian adults who could not attend their prom with a date of the same sex are popular in some cities. A 1980 court decision required public schools to allow same-sex dates.

Famous quotes containing the word alternative:
“If English is spoken in heaven ... God undoubtedly employs Cranmer as his speechwriter. The angels of the lesser ministries probably use the language of the New English Bible and the Alternative Service Book for internal memos.”
—Charles, Prince Of Wales (b. 1948)
