[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some of you are really incapable of thinking from any perspective except your own. Try considering for a moment why the school might want to ensure some consistency in the dress worn by interviewees. Before you assume they have sticks up their collective rear ends and just want to judge students on how well they dress, maybe ask yourself if there's any other possible reason. Think about what students might wear if there were no guidelines, and think about whether the *students* conducting the interviews might form an impression-positive or negative-based on the dress rather than the content of the interview. There's no perfect way to avoid that, but a minimal amount of conformity might help. I'm not saying that is the true reason it that it guarantees fair interviews, but it's at least possible the motivation is to make the process more fair, not less.[/quote] I don't take issue with the dress code, which seems pretty reasonable...I have a HUGE problem with the fact that SWW has students conducting interviews. That is beyond unacceptable--even if they don't technically get much of a say in the ranking, to have the interviewees think they did not get into a school because of a 10 minute conversation with a peer is horrible.[/quote]
