students should have the right to dress freely as they want. At the same time, it should be respectful to our Ajarns, the university, our peers, and others. This means not wearing anything too revealing, disrespectful, and so on. However, it is unfortunate that BE wants to automatically label students who come to campus in sandals or causal shorts as instantly being "disrespectful"... I think that we should recognize that there is a clear cut difference between wearing causal tropical-zone clothing and dressing disrespectfully. If you wear anything too revealing, such as: very short skirts, sleeveless shirts, cloths which are relatively transparent and therefore can “see through to the skin”, extremely “tight shirts”, etc., then that, I agree, is and should be considered disrespectful. Ordinary sandals and causal shorts, etc. should not be bundled with said group and automatically labeled as “disrespectful”. In addition, BE should be less severe with the punishments, for what they announce is simply too harsh. For instance, if a student dresses disrespectfully, then perhaps he or she should simply not be allowed to enter class (as in the lecturer reserves the right to enforce the rule on behalf of BE and kick the student out of class, whether or not the lecturer wanted to do so). Or perhaps, the lecturer can ask the student to leave discretely and carry on with the class. If the student refuses to do so, then the lecturer reserves the right to for instance, mark down the student’s name and ID, and take punishments gradually (for instance, not allowed to take the next quiz, no score for homework, deduction on class participation etc.) if the problem persists, then the lecturer should reserve to right to let the administration handle the special and rare case. That way we can ensure that all sides (lecturers, students, staff) work together to create a constructive and respectful learning environment, not an inefficient system where the administration simply creates a rule and lets it become the problem of those upon which it is enforced on. After all, we are adults and studying economics, "the scientific study of efficiency" aren’t we?
