• DRESS CODE--It is NOT an option, you must enforce
  it.  I don't want to have to come into your rooms
  and dress code someone in the middle of your
  class.  I continue to walk the halls, and see
  students (mainly Female students) with
  inappropriate shirts, shorts, etc.  Even males
  should not wear tank-tops (ABSOLUTELY NO
  TANK-TOPS).  Watch the female shirts in the back,
  they look fine in the front, but the backs are
  breaking the rules.  That means getting up and
  walking around the classroom.  Again, please
  start enforcing the dress code.

  by Alexander Hamilton who made a stronger case
  for the necessity of religious faith as a prop
  for popular government than Washington was
  willing to accept. Washington incorporated
  Hamilton's assertion that it was unreasonable to
  suppose that "national morality can be maintained
  in exclusion of religious principle," but
  declined to add Hamilton's next sentence, "does
  it national morality not require the aid of a
  generally received and divinely authoritative
  Religion?"

Carolina

  Quincy Adams, whose July 4, 1821, speech England
  rebutted in his sermon.
• Adams had claimed that the Roman Catholic Church
  was intolerant of other religions...
• England asserted that "we do not believe that God
  gave to the church any power to interfere with
  our civil rights, or our civil concerns." "I
  would not allow to the Pope, or to any bishop of
  our church the smallest interference with the
  humblest vote at our most insignificant balloting
  box."
