Dear Parents:

I am sure that you are proud that your son or daughter is going off to college. You are probably

curious, too, about the new life, and the experiences at Hampton University that will unfold. One

experience that often raises questions is how to secure your student’s grades. To make this

experience more meaningful to you, we have prepared the following information.

Under the United States Family Educational Rights Act of 1974, the student must authorize, in

writing, the release of any part of his records including his/her grades. This U. S. law makes

allowances for certain government entities and parents of a student, who have established that

student’s status as a dependent, according to the Internal Revenue Code. We must abide by that law.

In order to do so, while meeting the desires of parents, should your student need a second copy of

his/her grades, he/she can complete an authorization form, located in this packet, or in the

Registrar’s Office. We shall mail grades automatically, based upon the next-of-kin address that the

student provides, after we have received authorization. Your student may also order transcripts of

his/her academic record, with grades, at any time he/she chooses. The current fee is $10.00 per

transcript.

Hopefully, this information will be beneficial to you and your son or daughter, and this information

will also help to eliminate some of the stress that may occur while in attendance at the university. If

I may be of further assistance in regards to your student’s academic or registration records, please

contact me.

Sincerely,

Jorsene S. Cooper

University Registrar

HAMPTON UNIVERSITY STUDENT DRESS CODE

This code is based on the theory that learning to use socially acceptable manners and

to select attire appropriate to specific occasions and activities are critical factors in the total

educational process. Understanding and employing these behaviors improve the quality of one’s

life, contribute to optimum morale, and embellish the overall campus image. They also play a

major role in instilling a sense of integrity and an appreciation for values and ethics.

The continuous demonstrations of appropriate manners and dress insures that

Hampton University students meet the very minimum standards of quality achievement in the

social, physical, moral and educational aspects of their lives - essential areas of development

necessary for propelling students toward successful careers.

Students will be denied admission to various functions if their manner of dress is

inappropriate. On this premise students at Hampton University are expected to dress neatly at all

times. The following are examples of appropriate dress for various occasions:

1. Classroom, Cafeteria, Student Center and University offices - neat, modest, casual, or

dressy attire.

2. Formal programs in Ogden Hall, the Convocation Center, the Little Theater, Dett

Auditorium and the Memorial Chapel - business or dressy attire.

3. Interviews - business attire.

4. Social/Recreational activities, Residence hall lounges (during visitation hours) - modest,

casual or dressy attire.

5. Balls, Galas, and Cabarets - formal, semi-formal and dressy attire respectively.

Examples of inappropriate dress and/or appearance include but are not limited to:

1. Caps, do-rags or hoods for men and women in classrooms, the cafeteria, Student

Center or other indoor activities. This policy item does not apply to headgear

considered as a part of religious or cultural dress or traditional ladies’ headdress.

Do-rags, stocking caps, skullcaps and bandanas are prohibited at all times on the

campus of Hampton University (except in the privacy of the student’s living

quarters). 2. Midriffs or halters, mesh, netted shirts, tube tops or cut-off tee shirts in classrooms,

cafeteria, Student Center and offices;

3. Bare feet;

4. Short shorts;

5. Shorts, blue or other type jeans at major programs such as Musical Arts, Fall

Convocation, Commencement, or other programs dictating professional, dressy, or

formal attire,

6. Clothing with derogatory, offensive and/or lewd messages either in words or pictures;

7. Undershirts, for men, of any color outside of the private living quarters of the residence

halls.

All administrative, faculty and support staff members will be expected to monitor student

behavior applicable to this dress code and report any such disregard or violations to the Dean of

Men or Dean of Women for the attention of the Dean of Students.1
