<p>Did any of you purchase college apparel yet?</p>
<p>no.
I’m not a …</p>
<p>if you want to be going somewhere you should be looking into dressing in business attire(or at least semi-formal), and presenting yourself a well as possible. I’m ashamed to say that I’m dressed better than my summer professor and I’m not even doing anything crazy, just a dark pair of blue jeans and a collared shirt.</p>
<p>@xelink - I’m assuming you’re being sarcastic. If not, calm down! There will be plenty of time for serious clothes once you enter the workforce.</p>
<p>Side note - I live and work in LA and I’ll tell you that many companies don’t really care what you wear…my VP wears jeans every day and makes 250k a year</p>
<p>I agree with SMCguy. xelink, we’re in Los Angeles, not New York.</p>
<p>I’m trying to look a little bit more presentable and put more effort into my wardrobe. (Not like super dressy but i.e. jeans as opposed to sweats) </p>
<p>Everyone was pretty sloppy looking in CC because no one cared.</p>
<p>edit: Reread OP and you might talking about college sweatshirts and stuff instead. I owned all my UCLA gear before I even got in haha.</p>
<p>I’m going to purchase mine after football game/holidays, when they have it on sales.</p>
<p>Haha, yeah. I’m talking about college apparel. Are you heading off to UCLA, erikuh?</p>
<p>^ Yep - anthro major. </p>
<p>Maybe I’ll wear UCLA sweatpants to class haha.</p>
<p>I’ve got 3 UCLA shirts as well as the standard block lettered hoodie. </p>
<p>I think I own like 1 pair of sweatpants, and those never leave my house. I’m not going to be bumming it around campus, but I will not be seen rocking a tux to class everyday like Xelink surely will be.</p>
<p>I don’t see any remote correlation between what you wear and academia. Wear whatever is comfortable to you. What’s important is what you do in class (paying attention, or jotting down notes), not what you wear to class.</p>
<p>Everybody knows we’re all supposed to be dressed in bikinis and board shorts.</p>
<p>Just get one sweater and/or one shirt and you’re good to go. You’ll see a lot of girls wear college apparel sweats/shorts around the dorms or to morning classes, but that’s about it.
You mostly see students wear the college apparel near the beginning of the year and then it kinda dies off after that (not including sports games).</p>
