He said though the AMEU does not have a specific dress code for students, “it is very embarrassing to see female students appearing on campus indecently dressed.”
Dr. Isaac made the observation Monday when he served as Chief Launcher for the campus-based organization Support Action for Female Empowerment (SAFE) under the auspices of the Counseling Department of the Bryant Theological Seminary at the AMEU on Camp Johnson Road in Monrovia.
Dr. Isaac observed that the pride of a woman is her body, noting that any attempt to indecently expose that body is totally out of order.
He encouraged members of SAFE to advocate against indecent dressing in the school in a bid to discourage those in the habit of wearing clothes that bring into disrepute womanhood.
Dr. Isaac spoke on the theme: “Power of the Adolescent Girls, Vision for 2030.”
In remarks, the Coordinator of the AMEU Counseling Department, Dr. Muriel Nelson, promised that the SAFE will work with student groups to educate female students on the drawbacks of indecent dressing.
