I think it's BS what they are doing in education these days. Williamsville Schools stopped ranking the students because of 'feels' and a bunch of parents who just couldn't deal with the fact that their little Johnny or Jenny wans't the special little creature they have been talking up their entire life. OPSD removed all students from wearing anything but the basic cap and gown. So no Honor Cords, Tassels and Sashes for any student to make sure each little snowflake is viewed as being equal and Mommy and Daddy don't have to suffer through the horrors of taking pictures with Johnny or Jenny in just a regular gown when other kids have cords and tassels. It's all BS and it's making this generation weak.
That said, this kid is not in the Marine Corp. He has not completed boot camp and has not served a day in the military. The fact that this snowflake feels entited to wear something for something he has yet to do while other students don't get to wear cords, tassels and sashes on things they have already earned is a special kind of arrogance.
