Graffiti in The Bathroom

At this point in the school year pretty much every person has seen the graffiti in the bathroom. Many of the deans and teachers take this very seriously because of vandalism. But graffiti is just like any other type of art, so it should be treated like normal art. There is always art hanging in the hallway and offices. I am not against any of the art so I am proposing an art wall so anybody who does want to draw can do it in the hallway at a certain place, this could stop or at least drop the graffiti percentages of graffiti on the walls, bathrooms, or classes. The art/graffiti wall could also be a way for people to share their art around the school. It would also be used to hang posters or signs. Graffiti and other types of art should not be frowned upon and should be encouraged so by doing this we could encourage creativity and art. This could bring the community together because everybody would be sharing their art with each other and other types of art styles could be shared and recognized.
