School’s hair-length rule called
discriminatory by boys’ father
w
HOUSTON (AP) — The father of two long-haired
boys, in a suit filed Tuesday, charged a school district
with sexual discrimination and civil rights violations be
cause of its hair-length rule for male students.
“I feel all citizen rights are important and that I in
some way can make my contribution to see that all peo
ple are protected by the Constitution,” said Dub Wilkin
son, whose sons have missed school for nearly a year be
cause of the rule.
The suit, filed on behalf of his sons, Brian, 17, and
Travis, 15, seeks an injunction to block the Spring
Branch Independent School District and top district of
ficials from enforcing the rule and award unspecified
damages to Wilkinson for frivolous prosecution against
him.
The boys have been barred from school since No
vember 1988 for refusing to cut their hair, which falls
below their shoulders. School rules allow no hair past
shoulder-length.
Their father was fined $25 under a state law which
requires school attendance and a hearing to challenge
that fine was set for Tuesday before Harris County
Criminal Court Judge J.R. Musslewhite. That hearing
was delayed for two weeks, however, in light of the new
suit.
“It’s my understanding that the law and these kinds
of claims were addressed in the early and mid 1970s
and that the policies were upheld by the appeals courts
and the claims challenging them were rejected,” said
Jeff Davis, an attorney for the school district.
School officials have said in the past it was important
for students to learn to live by standards, and the local
school board recendy voted to uphold the hair rule.
“I refuse to be a blunt instrument for the schools to
use to beat my sons over the head, so they use thestatt
prosecuting system to be the blunt instrument becaust
we will not comply with their wishes,” Wilkinson said
“Once this is resolved, the books will be there, the teach
ers will be there, everything will be in place. If thei
want to avail themselves to the system, it will be there.
On Tuesday, Travis Wilkinson who would be intht
10th grade, said,“It’s just our right to have hair
long.”
He and his brother have been studying at homo
reading books and taking practice quizzes.
“We’re getting a good education,” Brian Wilkinson
an llth-grader, said. “This is real-life stuff here. This is
something you can’t get sitting in a class at school.”

The Wilkinsons’ attorney, Darrell K. McAlexander
said both sides were studying the case to determine tht
best way to resolve the matter.
“This is a sexually discriminatory policy in violation
of the Texas Constitution and U.S. Constitution,” he
said. “The problem with the policy is they are making! |
policy that is gender exclusive — they’re making ii |
against little boys but not against little girls.
“There is no way that can be maintained other than
as a cultural bias, a sexual bias. They are denying these
young men an education unless they comply with a gen
der exclusive rule.”
McAlexander said besides the $25 fine, Wilkinson
could face up to a $100 per day fine for each day his
child remains home.

“We have earmarked areas adjacent
to the different colleges and resi
dence halls,” Ray said.
“For instance, there are 28 live
oaks near Kleberg that represent the
College of Agriculture.”
The tree-naming program will in
clude the placement of memorial
plaques and benches near selected
trees and planted areas, he said.
The entry level for a potential tree
owner is $1,000.
“At this first level the donors have
two options,” Ray said. “They can
have a new tree planted with a me
morial plaque, or they can place the
same plaque on an existing tree and
have a memorial bench built near
by.”
The next level of giving is $2,500
for a 100-square-foot area that in
cludes a memorial tree, bench and
surrounding brick, he said.
Levels ranging from $21,000 to
$125,000 have been set for endow
ments to maintain several flower
beds and annual color areas, such as
the main entrance to campus and
surrounding the University Center
Complex, he said.
“The donations will be used to
cover the actual ouday, and hope
fully there will be a litde left over to
go towards tree care,” Ray said.
“If a donor wishes to plant a new
tree instead of using an existing one,
we will provide a 3- to 4-inch caliber
tree, normally a live oak or a water
oak,” he said.
If someone requests a certain kind
of tree it must be carefully consid
ered.
“We would have to take a look at
the tree because the soil and water
here make us a little bit restriedve,”
Mattox
he said.
The tree-naming program wi
provide a means for donations to It
made to Texas A&M at a smallt!
price range.
“It fills a niche for people wk
can’t afford big donations but wan:
to contribute to their school," Rai
said.
“I’ve been associated with two oi
three other schools and I have nevei
seen an alumni quite like this ont
They are generally quite generous. 1
The tree-naming program is tit
result of a campus committee whicl
included Ray, Vice President for Dt ‘
velopment Robert Walker, Associatt
Provost Jerry Gaston, and Associan
Vice President for Student Service
Malon Southerland. ..

misled his campaign staff to gain ac
cess to confidential documents.
According to Mattox, Hernandez
came into his downtown campaign
headquarters on three occasions and
claimed to be a Mattox supporter.
Hernandez later was seen work
ing at a campaign table for Richards
at the Mexican-American Democrats
convention, Mattox said.
Hernandez said he went by the
Mattox campaign headquarters
twice, once at the invitation of a Mat
tox campaign worker, because “I was
just a curious person.”
In his statement Tuesday, Mattox
criticized Richards and accused her
of losing control of her campaign
staff.
“Ann is missing in action. So the
question remains: How much did
Ann know, and when did she know
it? She has abandoned her campaign
to a staff in total disarray,” Mattox
said.
“While she’s been off trying to
raise money in Hollywood, San
Francisco and New York, her cam
paign staff has run amok,” he said.
Richards’ responded with so®
jabs of her own. She noted that Mai
tox hasn’t yet formally declared hi
self a candidate for governor, all
though he’s been raising money fe
such a bid for more than a year,
“To my knowledge, I don’t eve:
have an opponent in this race,” sit
said.
“We’ve committed to the peopl:
of Texas we would conduct this can
paign on the very highest possi
plane, and we intend to do that,..I
don’t intend to engage in that kill
of ridiculous dialogue (with Mai
tox),” Richards said.
