A number of female students at Wasatch High School in Heber City, Utah, were left outraged when their yearbook photos were photoshopped without their knowledge. 
 
The students noticed that their necklines had been raised and even a tattoo removed during photo editing. 
 
Adding to the women’s anger was the fact that the editing was not consistent and that plenty of other students' images were not retouched. Rachel Russel, a pupil at the school, said: “There were plenty of girls [who] were wearing thicker tank tops and half of them got edited and half of them didn’t.”
 
It seems that this aspect of the incident is what has angered the student most. 
 
The school has apologised for their actions, to an extent: “We only apologise in the sense that we want to be more consistent with what we’re trying to do in that sense we can help kids better prepare for their future by knowing how to dress appropriately for things.”
