Putting on the Ritz
Ceara Sturgis, 17, doesn't even own a dress. Sturgis says she's openly gay, and she wants to wear a tuxedo in her high school yearbook senior photograph. But school officials at Wesson Attendance Center in Jackson, Mississippi, say only boys can dress in tuxedos. Sturgis, her family, and the American Civil Liberties Union say they may take the matter to court.
