Melissa, We ask that our College Interns dress in professional work attire (just outlining no jeans or sneakers). We have not had any issues with this. Our High School Interns can wear kakis with a logo t-shirt (usually because they may be interacting with visitors on a more regular basis). There are also "dress down" days when the Museum is not open, or when we are working in areas that may require a bit of nitty gritty work where we are flexible with attire. We also have days where we may be having a big event or program that requires everyone (including HS interns) to dress in business attire (ie. A tie or skirt). Hope this helps, Valerie Valerie Albanese Museum Educator Intrepid Sea, Air, & Space Museum x8325 ________________________________ From: Museum discussion list [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Marietta, Melissa Sent: Monday, November 28, 2005 3:57 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: intern dress question For those of you with interns, do you require a uniform or business professional dress? We currently have all of our interns wear a uniform that consists of a polo and khakis but are considering changing to professional attire. I'd like to know what issues have arisen for those of you who require professional dress. The uniform is certainly an easy way to go for everyone, but does it teach students about dressing for the professional world? And is the lesson worth it for the staff who have to monitor the interns' clothing? Thanks.
