I have now decided that in addition to my full time work at a community college I need to offer services on the proper attire for students.
Today was the first day of the semester. We are a pretty big CC and have a huge international student population. We are very proud and excited about all the countries represented. We're also proud of our surfer dudes, goth population and geeks.
Today however, I saw a girl I'm sure was attending for the first time. She was wearing:
Shocking pink mary jane pumps
Shocking pink anklet socks with doubel rows of lace trim
A white mini skirt
Pink (I think) tank top with pink tulle wrapped around her upper body in some sort of top
A white mini pillbox/tophat with white tulle and feathers perched at a jauntly angle on her head.
I had to cut through two buildings before I could bust a gut and let it out. Unfortunately I was laughing at her and am wondering how many other people will do the same. I know, I know, you can't judge a person by how they dress and I grew up in the '60s so lets just not go there shall we?
However, I always told my children especially when they were starting a new location, dress/behave as you intend to continue.
Perhaps I can offer a summer weekend course in proper attire.
