			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Students at Morehouse College are being held to a higher standard. The administration is preparing to enact a dress code later this month. According to the college's newspaper, <a href="http://www.themaroontiger.com/" target="_blank">the Maroon Tiger</a>, the dress code is formally called the ‘Appropriate Attire Policy.' The new way of dress is set to enforce the president of the college, Dr. Robert Franklin's idea of a “Renaissance Man” as presented during one of his speeches.</p>
<p>Included in the policy are 11 new rules including no sagging pants, no headwear and the most amusing request of  all, no women's clothing. The policy will be distributed online via the school website and in the student handbook.  </p>
<p>As previously <a href="http://hiphopwired.com/11273/11-year-old-tries-to-eliminate-the-n-word/">reported</a>, a prolific 11-year-old  named Jonathan McCoy worked with campus administration on the dress code and elimination of the use of the n-word on campus.</p>
<p>As a Hampton University graduate where our dress code prohibited sagging pants, du rags, white tees and baseball caps I applaud Morehouse for taking a stand. Dress codes hold students to a higher standard and while their policy is less strict that my Alma Mater's I think it's a good idea.</p>
