Students' dress sense

Students' dress sense

From Media Indonesia

Students at institutes of higher learning should have a higher awareness of appropriate dress in such an academic environment.

As we have often observed, most university students dress like popular entertainers on campus. Some wear expensive branded fashion, while others attend lectures in tank tops, miniskirts and revealing clothing with sandals instead of shoes.

College authorities have laid down dress codes, but students ignore them. Meanwhile, lecturers and other staff regard students' inappropriate attire as the norm.

While high school students may obediently follow a strict dress code, college students should be more conscientious about dressing appropriately to suit their advanced level of education.
