A World Being Saved by a Princess: Hampton U Dean Bans Cornrows and Dreadlocks: 'Martin Luther King Didn't Wear It' →
By Hamilton Nolan, Aug 23, 2012 11:33 AM
At Hampton University, a historically black college in Virginia MBA students are banned from wearing cornrows or dreadlocks, thanks to an edict from Business School Dean Sid Credle.
*Covers face with hands, shaking head slowly*
Dean Credle disagrees and says when people criticize the ban for denying cultural aspects of style, he believes cornrows and dreadlocks have not been a historically professional look.

Exactly why I transferred from Hampton. Too many rules. Too expensive to have such a shitty campus anyway.
