Uniforms allow students to be time efficient For many students, deciding what to wear five days a week for approximately fourteen weeks each semester is grossly time consuming. I am aware that the above is a sweeping generalization, but for students who care about their appearance, the ones who do not simply put on the first pieces of clothing sticking out of their closets, time and effort go into what they wear. This effort, no matter how minor, could be redirected towards their school work if they had sanctioned uniforms.
