I am all for showing people a way to dress acceptably, though the language was a bit off. A decent pair of shoes and slacks are great to have, and even though I have a job and do the school gig on the side I dress nicer for class because it truly does help to look serious and professional. If I show up in a t-shirt with faded jeans and tennis shoes, how is any student supposed to take me seriously as a TA with any authority to assist them academically? Furthermore this semester I've gotten great treatment in a new department, which yes is based on my abilities, but I also believe on presenting myself as a put together adult with an air of capability.
Don't get me wrong I love an Idaho sweatshirt and jeans with Converse when I'm at home, but when I leave my house for campus I dress better than that.
