The fresh air of the dance season came right at the end: the City Championships for the Chicago Public League dance teams! An amazing mix of dance styles, high-profile teams, novice teams, and an awesomely cool experience watching teams that deserve a much brighter spotlight in Illinois dance. Then--the controversy. After a quick review of what went down, we look at how the rule in question was applied and whether or not it led to a just and fair situation. Then we look at the nature of any rule or policy in high school sports--and is the limit on the number of competitions even a useful one? A quick peak at the background of the rule, and we discover that some other changes would be much more meaningful and just. To cap things off we explore the "rank score" system used in that other amazing dance team state before ending with a serious case of swerving into fashion police mode.
