General Appearance Information

Personal appearance makes a strong impression on the attitude of those you serve about you and Tulsa Community College. It is always a good idea to ask if there is a dress code at the community partner site. In addition to the dress code, consider the following guidelines:

Choose

  • Clean comfortable clothing
  • Only closed-toed shoes with good support
  • Appropriate, presentable personal grooming and hygiene. In some cases, especially when dealing with food, long hair should be pulled away from your face.

Avoid

  • clothing that promotes a political agenda, band, questionable messages, or advertising
  • flip flops
  • revealing or tight-fitting clothing, tank tops, or low-cut shirts
  • large, bulky jewelry that could get caught in clothing or hair
