Masinde Muliro University of Science and Technology (MMUST) has ignited a fashion storm by banning a range of attire deemed “indecent wear,” .

This will affect students who wish to flaunt plastic shoes, slippers, crocs, mini skirts, ragged jeans, and more within its hallowed halls.

In a campus-wide decree conveyed through an internal memo, the Dean of Students, Bernardatte Abwao, voiced her disquiet over the escalating incidents of indecent dressing among the institution’s students.

She took a moment to commend those who adhered to the decorum of decent attire but swiftly turned her focus to the culprits.

The Kakamega-based university has left no room for ambiguity, ruling out T-shirts sporting inappropriate slogans, any variety of plastic footwear, and revealing outfits such as mini skirts, skin-tight trousers, torn jeans, and low-cut blouses or dresses.

The memo explicitly forbade entry to individuals who defy these guidelines.

Moreover, the memo levied a specific ban on micro shorts, transparent dresses, garments that expose bra straps, and sleeveless T-shirts, cautioning that such attire was unwelcome within the institution’s premises.

Male students were not exempt from these regulations either, as they found themselves barred from flaunting sagging trousers and attire that exposed their chest.

Dr. Abwao emphasized the university’s expectations for students to present themselves in “modest and appropriate attires.”

Masinde Muliro University of Science and Technology‘s bold move has sparked conversations both on and off campus, with students and fashion enthusiasts questioning the boundaries between individual expression and institutional regulations.

The university’s stance on these matters has left students navigating the fine line between personal style and respecting institutional norms.
