Jedi,
Thanks for clarifying. It sounds like they treated people respectfully but
may go overboard some but as you said all humans do this sometimes.
I am glad LCB has the accountability to students to have them dress cleanly.

That was my message. And I don't think I said that boundaries are often
crossed. What I said was that sometimes, staff occasionally offered
criticism that, while probably well meant, wasn't really that helpful or
necessary. And frankly, sometimes, as a student, I occasionally got
criticism that I felt wasn't anyone's place to give. But that's just my
opinion. If nothing else, it provided me an opportunity to practice self
advocacy skills and to politely let people know that, in a given situation,
a decision was mine to make.
