Morehouse College was built on what their "Renaissance Men" give back to society now by the way the dress or identify with themselves. Morehouse College focuses on five wells to achieve their honor of being a "Renaissance Man". They are well spoken, dressed, traveled, balanced, and read. The dress code attacks well dressed by enforcing the rule that students must dress and act appropriately. The dress code is as follows:
- no caps, do-rags and/or hoods in classrooms, the cafeteria, or other indoor venues
- no sun glasses worn in class or at formal programs
- no jeans at major programs, as well as no sagging pants on campus
- no clothing with derogatory or lewd messages either in words or pictures
- no wearing of pajamas in public spaces
- "decorative orthodontic appliances" (“grillz”, for instance) shall not be worn on the campus or at college-sponsored events.
- no wearing of clothing usually worn by women (dresses, tops, tunics, purses, pumps, etc.) on the Morehouse campus or at college-sponsored events.
The part I am allows interested in is the fact that Morehouse was 2009's Best Liberal Art College for Black Males yet they do not have the right to choose their own sexual oriientation and act on it? That does not sound too liberal to me however I can not judge that in which I am a part of. Too often in our "Black Harvard Spelhouse Soceity" we are caught up in this idea that we must always fit into what soceity is to well. Meaning we have to DRESS the part at all times, and that my readers is not liberal at all.
