Standards of Appearance
Our personal appearance influences us and everyone who sees us. The faculty expect that when students come to class they will maintain an appearance that is neat, dignified, and appropriate to the occasion.
- No torn, stained, or sloppy clothing.
- No T-shirts, shorts, or inappropriately revealing clothing.
- Natural hair colors only.
- Only earlobes may be pierced; ladies may also wear small nose gems.
- Students from other cultures and traditions are welcome to wear traditional dress provided the appearance is neat.
- The faculty may reduce students’ grades whose attire is below this standard. The faculty may also specify other standards for individual programs or courses.
- Dress in the dining hall, meditation halls, and Golden Domes is the same as for class, except T-shirts are acceptable in the meditation halls and Golden Domes.
