HAVE YOU BEEEN DRESSING PROFESSIONAL?
There are different types of professional dress and casual clothing. Here are some summarizations of what professional dress, business casual, and campus casual should look like and where you could go to get these attires.
Professional Dress:
- This is the most conservative type of business wear. It’s what you’ll be expected to wear in the office if you work in accounting, finance, or other conservative industries (or if you just have a really conservative boss!) For women, this means a business suit or pants suit, or dress and jacket. For men, professional dress means a business suit or a blazer, dress pants and a tie.

Business Casual:
- his is a more relaxed version of "Professional Dress", but it doesn’t mean you’re actually going to be "casual"! This is likely going to be your office dress code if you work in a semi-conservative workplace, but some interviews and events may also call for business casual. Basically, business casual is a shirt with a collar and/or a sweater, khakis or dress pants and nice shoes for women. Women can also sometimes wear a moderate length dress or skirt (read: knee-length or longer!). For men, business casual is a polo shirt or shirt with a collar and/or sweater, khakis or dress pants and dress shoes. No tie is required.

Campus Casual:
- Campus casual is what you probably won’t be wearing to work. This is the technical term for what you’re probably wearing every day – jeans, tee shirts, flip flops, sneakers. You may be asked to wear campus casual to some very informal on-campus interviews and career days, and some casual networking events. In general, you probably want to stay away from this in the workplace and err towards more conservative stuff.
President Wright doesn't allow polo shirts in the faculty dress code except during the summer!
ReplyDeleteIt definitely depends on the workplace. When I was at UT-Austin, khakis and a polo shirt were dressed up compared to a lot of instructors.
After reading this I'm glad to say that I've been dressing correctly! This can be a guide for future educators to get practice at dressing professional while they are here on campus. Start now before someone ends up telling you in the Classroom!
