Islamabad, Aug 23: Students are not allowed to wear T-shirts and jeans on campus, according to a new dress code policy established by Government College University (GCU) Lahore.
The university administration formally announced this decision, which has caused a range of responses from both students and professors.
All male and female students must adhere to the new dress code requirements as stated in the GCU Lahore notification that was made public earlier this week. The document states that the administration’s choice is a part of a larger effort to preserve the academic atmosphere and defend the institution’s principles.
The policy places a strong emphasis on modest clothes, arguing that one’s wardrobe choice should demonstrate the university’s dedication to promoting order and decorum.
The administration has made it clear that the prohibition on jeans and T-shirts is an absolute necessity rather than just a recommendation. When on campus, students are expected to follow the new dress code at all times.
