no they specified that there was full on drag-queen style cross-dressing, it was a small minority but it was there. fact is, sex has always and will always sell, this gets far more attention (ratings) than just an announcement of a new dress code. as has been said earlier in the thread, it's the most extreme example of the fashion being curbed on campus, the primary function was to limit the amount of urban / gangsta wear.
then again the fact that specific core business course outlines at that college HAD to specify that it expected students to dress appropriately (including combing their hair and tying their shoes) leads me to believe this is actually becoming a serious issue, and that more and more kids are being coddled into some bogus pre-conceived notion that the adult world will suddenly cater to their whims because they're SPECIAL and NO ONE should ever limit what mommy's little angel can do.
that's not to say you shouldn't have fun in college / univeristy. nor should you refrain from expressing yourself, OUTSIDE of class. but quite frankly, if one cannot at least attempt to step up to the conventions of the working world while in a post secondary educational institution, why are they taking away a seat from someone who legitimately wants to be there so they can find some level of success afterwards? as opposed to being yet another winner like this one...
