I wore jeans and a sweater today. Casual, certainly, but not overly casual. Yet when I walked in and set the exams down at the front of the room, the first two comments I heard:
whoooaaah! Change of costume!
Hey, waitaminute . . . aren't you supposed to be in khaki pants and a blue shirt?
so sue me for being colorblind. Plus, have you ever tried to find a men's dress shirt that's not white or blue? This comes after an almost identical evaluation of my attire in my 8:00 class last Thursday, in which one student said, well, at least you're not wearing red. You'd look terrible in red.
sigh.
