Does wearing a suit to college everyday alienate the class?

<p>Should I wear a suit with suspenders Made In Italy to college everyday?</p>

<ul>
<li>feel better</li>
<li>look better</li>
<li>attract more girls</li>
<li>don't know when you're going to meet your next employer</li>
<li>teacher pays you more respect</li>
</ul>

<p>I have about 10 suits. Should I do it or is this pretentious? </p>

<p>Alongside students wearing jeans, graphic t-shirts, and boots; I think I will look MUCH more professional wearing a crisp white dress shirt made of 100% cotton, a silk tie, tie tack/clip, wool pants, leather belt, cufflinks, and leather shoes.</p>

<p>You never know when you'll meet someone in business or in romance who is worth it. To complete the ensemble I am thinking of getting a leather briefcase and an Ipad 3 with a wireless Bluetooth keyboard.</p>

I highly doubt either of those will happen. Especially is suspenders are involved. </p>

<p>You’ll look pretentious and stuck-up. And that works with BOTH sexes, lest you think women are going to run to you because of your suit.</p>

<p>Don’t wear the suites. Be a normal kid unless you have a presentation. You’ll more likely get compliments that way. You’ll be noticed more if you’re really good at what you do.</p>

<p>Wear what you want to wear. If you honestly would feel best in a suit, wear a suit. Don’t wear one just because you think it will get you respect. And don’t not wear one just because people think it’s pretentious (which I do, unfortunately!)</p>

<p>This is just my opinion, but I think that would be overboard. Tremendously so. I mean, I’m all for wearing what makes you feel good but I think this might be a bit much for everyday wear.</p>

<p>Attracting more girls? Ehh…it probably wouldn’t work on me at first to be honest. And several gals I can think of as well. Many teachers don’t necessarily care what you wear or how you dress either; they care about how you do in class. How well you do your assignments, presentations, or exams. You can dress like a king and do terrible in class, dress like a bum and get top marks, or vice versa. </p>

<p>As for potential employers, if they’re searching on a campus they know that they’ll be seeing all sorts of characters. Examples from across the board. Just because you’re dressed nice doesn’t mean you’ll be their first choice.</p>

<p>Not sure if trolling…</p>

<p>For your sake, I hope you’re messing with us. Suits are worn for business formal conditions and going to class is not business formal. You would be committing a faux pas and instead of getting respect for it, you would be getting the opposite. </p>

<p>I also cannot conceive how wearing a suit would be comfortable. Being comfortable is key to absorbing new information. And you will most definitely not be meeting an employer in a classroom.</p>

<p>10/10 got a few bites and made me laugh</p>

<p>I honestly knew someone in high school who wore a tuxedo every day…</p>

<p>I know a guy who does this. He’s from Poland and I guess they do dress up more there (but he’s also a really weird person too so it’s just part of his personality I think) and he really sticks out. Kind of not in a good way. I don’t really advise it lol.</p>

<p>

Looking at previous posts, definitely is.</p>

<p>

Uh what haha, a suit is one thing, but wearing a tuxedo is another. I doubt there is need for a tuxedo on everyday occasion.</p>

13

<p>Aw your trolling was so much better before. Stick to conspiracy theories, they’re funnier.</p>

14

<p>Suit up!</p>

<p>…HIMYM</p>

15

<p>This sounds like something you should definitely do. </p>

<p>I did that all through elementary school, suit + tie + Tamagotchi on my hip and I slayed mad *****es. </p>

<p>I don’t see why it wouldn’t work in college either.</p>

<p>DON’T FEED THE ■■■■■.</p>

<p>And if you’re not trolling, your not gonna have friends.</p>

<p>But I’m 99% sure you’re trolling.</p>

<p>From a girl’s point of view, I’d honestly think you were a prick. But that may be just me.</p>

18

<p>Eh, you’d probably be “that weird kid.” Like the guy that wears a fedora.</p>

<p>

Yeah, because so many bad things will happen to the world if we respond to a stupid or intentionally false post.</p>

19

<p>^What a prick. It was a joke. You know what those are right? Don’t get your panties in a bunch.</p>

<p>Depends on where you go to school. If you go to school in DC, you won’t stand out at all…a lot of students wear suits to class on a regular basis because they are working internships that require business dress.</p>
