A hotel owner in New Orleans is offering to host a prom for seniors at a Mississippi high school. The school's own prom was canceled after an 18-year-old lesbian student said she wanted to take her girlfriend, and wear a tux. The ACLU demanded that school officials change their policy against same-sex prom dates. And it said the district violated Constance McMillen's free expression rights by not letting her wear a tux. McMillen is asking a federal judge to force the school district to reinstate the dance. Meanwhile, New Orleans hotel owner Sean Cummings is offering to take the students to New Orleans by bus, and host a free prom at one of his properties. He tells a Jackson newspaper (The Clarion-Ledger) he's disappointed with the school board's decision -- and that high school should be concluded on a "joyful" note. --- Prom has been canceled at a northern Mississippi school after a lesbian student demanded she be allowed to bring her girlfriend. The American Civil Liberties Union had demanded that the Itawamba County school district allow 18-year-old Constance McMillen to attend with her date. A school board statement Wednesday announced the district wouldn't host the April 2 prom at Itawamba County Agricultural High School. McMillen wanted to escort her girlfriend, who is also a student. McMillen also was denied permission to wear a tuxedo. A school district policy requires that dates be of the opposite sex. The district's statement never mentioned McMillen's request <b>...</b>
