Ever thought that not having a school dress code could lead to violence over something so simple as to what a person might own or wear? To many people 's surprise, school dress codes can be a very important topic to discuss at any and every public school.

The prominent reason behind the various overdone school rules regarding dress is the loose power that administrators have been given. They have been “reserve[d] the right to determine if a clothing item or accessory is appropriate for school” (Carroll High School Student Handbook 2010-2011 18). The officials at school are using their own personal opinions to judge the students’ dress. Since styles change as time goes on, the generation in control and the

Dress codes are becoming more and more popular throughout the United States; however, this does not mean all administrators agree with them. In fact, there are educators

In today’s society looking good is important, especially in the working environment. Every occupation has some sort of dress code for employees to follow. Dress codes can range from wearing suits to gym shorts depending on one’s occupation. Employers decide if the candidate is qualified for the job based on appearance, and then what you wear for the job based on the company’s dress code. The question is can one’s employer dictate what is appropriate dress outside of the job? Employers should only have a say of what one wears while representing the company.

The article titled, "Dressing for Creativity," states that allowing employees to dress casually at work, has many benefits. Those benefits include, boosting morale, creativity, and confidence. Arguing that just because a business has, "Casual Fridays," or a dress code that consist of, “sneakers, jeans, and T-shirts,” doesn't prove that the company or the company’s representatives are unprofessional or unproductive. Like the article explains that many new era companies began in “dorm rooms, garages, and basements,” appearance was never an issue for these now, “million-dollar businesses.” An

Are dress codes a good idea for school? The reason why dress codes should be insignificant for school As a student who goes to school, I do not conceive that dress codes hold any significance for school or any of the people who go to school (including students, teachers, principals, and staff).

“The mere fact that I exist, means that I deserve to be here and to express myself any damn way I please.” said Euphoria Godsent when talking about the First Amendment. On December 15, 1791, our founding fathers accepted the First Amendment as a part of the constitution. Today, people twist the meaning of the First Amendment to form loopholes in situations, with one of the most guilty being public schools. Most kids go to school from a young age until they transition into adulthood where they also become their own boss, unlike their childhood. Teachers enforce a dress code telling the students what the school allows and denies students the right to wear, which acts as a great example of this. For the most part, students despise the dress code, for a plethora good reasons.What students decide to wear to school acts as a form of symbolic speech, which the First Amendment covers. However, schools claim that the teachers formed the dress code for the benefit of the students. So in the battle between teacher and student, everyone asks whether or not dress codes violate the student's First Amendment. Schools should get rid of dress codes because the way student's dress is a way to express themselves, dress codes can psychologically hurt students, and they violate the student's’ First Amendment.

The author penned, “there’s also the disruption and humiliation that enforcing the attire rules can pose during school. Frequently, students are openly called out in the middle of class, told to leave and change, and sometimes, to go home and find a more appropriate outfit. In some instances, girls must wear brightly colored shirts that can exacerbate the embarrassment, emblazoned with words like, ‘Dress Code Violator’,”(Zhou).

Implementing dress codes should not be in educational institutions of any level. This debate over enforcing dress codes in school environments has been a controversial subject in the educational institutions for years. Administrators have struggled to find effective ways to decrease the number of disciplinary issues. The primary solution that they have implemented is the introduction of dress codes. The introduction of dress codes has been a common way to help decrease the number of disciplinary issues. The topics of bullying, gangs, violence, and freedom of expression are thrown into this conversation, causing controversy within educational institutions.

We are to all wear business attire while we are working. The first meeting should consist of men wearing a dark conservative suit. Women should wear a dark conservative suit or a modest dress. They tend to look more presentation verses material things so we should all be ironing our clothing and polishing out shoes.

Finally, I consider that many jobs should require their employees to have dress codes. There are many reasons why I think this, such as, they make the job become more professional. The jobs that should do this are lawyers, doctors, and nurses. Many other jobs may need to also, such as, teachers and business workers like accounting. All of these reasons support my reasoning for saying jobs should have required dress codes. I believe jobs should not proscribe dress codes. If they choose to still not follow the dress code, scowl them until they do. Get them and get them

Vanessa Friedman stated in New York Times 2016, “Dress code issues have become a cause that resonates far beyond the borders of whatever institution of industry is in question, and one that unites people across political parties and national borders”.

In this essay I will focus on the controversy that asks “are dress codes in the workplace imposed unfairly on women?” I will discuss both sides of this argument, and my stance on this issue.

Though it is understandable to want to implement a dress code, despite the censorship being implied by this very notion, there is a certain way that all employers want their job to look like; furthermore, certain jobs require attire for safety reasons and for identification purposes. For instance a police officer must wear his uniform with badge and gear so he is easily identifiable to the public in the case of an emergency. A fire fighter is the same way, but their uniform is also built for going into fires to save individuals. The discrimination needs to stop
