"But if the schools themselves thought there was a problem, how come the schools themselves aren't doing something to fix it? Are the schools themselves powerless to control what happens in their own gyms? Or is it more likely a few (the Executive Committee) feel they need to impose their view of morality unto the majority? "
I guess I am dense (I really mean that BTW) -- the SCHOOLS did try to fix the problem. They did it be going to the "process" that coordinates "fix" it statewide.

Rather than having the process leave things to independant schools the Executive Board (i.e. school "people") went to the General Assembly of the OSAA to make a "rule". That august group selected the wording and asked the OSAA to sheriff the penalty.

I cannot explain this any better.

The schools under the OSAA selected to have the rule written.

The opinion if the rules went too far are really not germane . . . the schools wanted an organized effort to clean up as issue that they thought was failed.

It is obvious I am not the correct person to explain the process and for that I apologize.
