Does anyone else here have to dress up like Nurse Rachett for graduation?

Help!

I'm working my butt off and doing great in my class; and we'll be done in June. :D

Graduation will mean the world to me, but we have to wear those awful white dresses with the silly paper nurse caps for graduation!! Throw in those white hose and ugly white shoes and I'm tempted to skip the ceremony.

They keep saying "it's tradition"... well, so is sexism and underpayment. The males only have to wear white pants & shirts.

Am I off base here? What does your school require for graduation attire??
