...well not anymore. Maybe like 15 years ago! Morehouse College is implementing a dress code as part of the President's "Five Wells: well read, well spoken, well-traveled, well dressed and well balanced."
The "well dressed" portion of the creed includes things like not wearing do-rags outside of residence halls, no sunglasses in class, no jeans at major programs, no pajamas outside of the dorm, no dental grills, no women's garb and my personal favorite: no sagging. For the full story, click here.
While I love this idea, I can see the challenges up ahead they will face with getting students to buy into this idea. What's a rule with no consequences? Some of these things are common sense! Who wears sunglasses in class? At any rate, I'm going to make a point to let every young man (or woman, you know what I'm talking about) who where their pants low to pull them up.
I'm not going to lie...I've worn sunglasses in class before...the shame...
ReplyDeleteuh, sadly these rules are needed as many young folk don't know & have not been taught how to be appropriate
