No Shave November is a wonderful tradition meant to help raise awareness and education for cancer. It’s all well and good, until adolescent men participate. Now, there is nothing wrong with growing a full and healthy mustache and/or beard. The key term is full and healthy. There is no gentle way of putting it. For a teen to grow a full amount of facial hair is a statistical anomaly. Frankly, it would require a miracle. Unfortunately, not even a miracle can save some of the facial hair we are subjected to during November. For these many, their only hope is a razor. So please, for everyone else’s sake, just shave.

No Shave November is an annual tradition at the Academy that always cheers me up. Hallways are filled with patchy mustaches, awkward neck beards, and lonely chin hairs, eliciting vibrant laughs from stone-faced students. Most guys in high school can’t grow a solid beard, and that’s completely normal. It’s what makes No Shave November at the Academy as awkwardly glorious as it is. If No Shave November gives shameless guys the opportunity to display hair that looks like a dying ferret, who are we to stop them if they want to embarrass themselves? I know for a fact that the highlight of the student body’s entire year is always the all impressive beauty pageant at the end of the month, displaying only the absolute best facial hair. The absolute frenzy and excitement created among the student body is unrivaled. Who has the best side burns? The best goatee? The drama and grandeur of the contest always brings the most apathetic of students to the edge of their seats. The Oscars have nothing on Bob Jones Academy’s facial hair showdown.
