GCUThe Government College University (GCU) Lahore has announced a new dress code policy that prohibits students from wearing T-shirts and jeans on campus.
This decision, which has sparked a mix of reactions among students and faculty, was formalized through a notification issued by the university administration.
The GCU Lahore notification, released earlier this week, outlines the new dress code guidelines that all male and female students are required to follow. According to the document, the administration’s decision is part of a broader initiative to uphold the institution’s values and maintain a respectful academic environment.
The policy emphasizes the importance of modest attire, suggesting that the choice of clothing reflects the university’s commitment to fostering a disciplined and decorous atmosphere.
The administration has clarified that the ban on T-shirts and jeans is not merely a suggestion but a mandatory requirement. Students are expected to adhere to the new dress code at all times while on campus.
The notification further warns that any instances of non-compliance will be met with strict disciplinary action, although specific penalties have not been detailed.

I will agree, students should dress sharply to show that they are not blue collar people, but instead students of a prestigious organization such as GC. A pair of pressed pant shirt or sharply pressed white shalwar qameez shows that students are not coming to the institute without even washing their face and are disciplined enough to know the importance of their studies. There is nothing wrong with a proper dress code.
