Law school dress?

Post by blink » Tue Jul 20, 2010 2:01 pm

How should I dress for class? If I had the choice, I would wear gym shorts and a teeshirt as often as I could. Do professors care how students dress in class? Will this sort of dress fly in law school?

Seriously though?

I can find the answer in under a minute using the search function. I'm sure you can do the same.

No one cares. Just don't come to class in pajamas, if only for the sake of the rest of the students.

I plan to wear a tee shirt and gym shorts as well (weather permitting), but juxtaposed with my sperry boat shoes

I'm petty sure you must wear a tuxedo complete with top-hat to each and every class. Women must wear floor-length ball gowns and tiaras.

TITCR. But do NOT forget your monocle for men and chastity belt for women, or you will be considered underdressed. I made this mistake once, it was hugely embarrassing.

Suits for the males. Bowties are optional unless you're South of the Mason-Dixon then they're mandatory.

For the females, any multi-colored burqa will suffice.

Seriously though?

If you have the time to be a prick in both forums OP has posted the question, you must have time to answer it as well.

You should enter a search function contest, it sounds like you're good.

Wear what you like, dude.

It was the second time I told the OP to use the search function and the OP already admitted that he/she had barely tried to look for one.

This question has been answered a million times on these forums. Personally I would like to find useful shit on these forums that would be helpful to people rather than have them cluttered with the personal questions of people who feel their time is worth more than everybody else's.

I also won the Northern California regional search function contest, thanks for asking.

Did you seriously just try to out someone as being a prick by being a prick?

You can wear whatever you want, but I would strongly advise wearing something like this to final exams:

So you'd prefer to garble it up with unhelpful responses instead? So that when people can figure out how to use the search function, they get answers like yours? I guess I just don't see the logic.

btw congratulations on your accomplishments. I heard the Northern Cal circuit ain't no cake walk.

I know, but I figure the more people I expose to the idea, the likelier it is someone will actually wear it to finals. Which would be awesome.
