8. Birmingham Metropolitan College professors issued dress code Professors at the newly-formed Birmingham Metropolitan College will be sent home if they do not follow a strict new dress code. Members of staff have been told they cannot wear jeans or scruffy trousers and instead they must dress in business suits and skirts. The new guidelines say that “unconventional jewelry” is banned and that staff should have no visible tattoos and no slogans on T-shirts or sweatshirts. The professors have reacted angrily to the tough new rules and has accused the college of acting like the “fashion police.” However, college officials have defended the move, insisting that it is important their staff present a professional image. A spokeswoman from the college said: “The dress code was reissued as a result of requests from staff as to what was acceptable workwear. Our aim is to ensure staff can deliver excellence in all areas of work.”
