yes they do set dress codes. (and yes, supervisors take them aside, but the only reason they have grounds to do so is because of the dress code.) seriously, i've never worked anywhere - including two universities - that didn't have a dress code policy. for me the only places i've ever worked were for non-profits, corporations or office settings, and universities, so maybe it's just more common there to have dress codes than in schools...but as a student, we were always held to a dress code in schools, so even in schools it's odd to me that teachers get to be the exception. also, at least in corporate settings, workers violate dress code alllllll the time (i'm talking ridiculously high heels, jeggings, sheer tops, etc.). i'd be curious what the incidence of teachers wearing club wear, beach wear, etc. to school was in an area with no dress code cause it happens fairly often in office settings.
