Veritas insists on compulsory dress code for students
Veritas University, Abuja, has insisted on a compulsory dress code for its students.
This, it said, is in line with the institution’s Students’ Handbook, which upholds dress code for all students.
This was contained in an internal memorandum signed by the Acting Dean, Students Affairs, Dr Michael-Mary Akaigwe entitled, ‘Upholding Veritas University Dress Code’.
The memo expressed concern that while some male students were wearing earrings in the Catholic institution, their female counterparts put on ‘provocative’ tops.
It noted that from today (May 13), a special task force would uphold the dress code in the institution.
The document reads: “We have also noticed abnormalities in the colours of hair attachments, extravagant eyelashes and long, terrifying nails and henna on the bodies of some.
“Effective Monday, May 13, 2024, a special task force from the Student Affairs Unit will be responsible for upholding the dress code in its entirety.”
Ensure you dress properly and comply with the services the task force is rendering to our university community.”
