Date Created: 1928
Abstract: This four-page pamphlet details the dress regulation of Ward-Belmont College in 1928. "Extravagance and extremes in dress are wholly out of harmony with our spirit and ideas. . .

The pamphlet outlines the colors and styles permitted, gives advice on when and where to purchase the clothing, and explains the expectation for dress both at school and for social functions.
