(3 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I am a student here and I love it! But they are too strict on us when it comes to undershirts and jackets. I mean, how is it we can where black and khaki pants and jackets, but not undershirts. In a students opinion that is wrong. It would not hurt anybody if we added two colors for our undershirts!!
