Introduction

1.1Background of the study

Education is very important investments in any nation making to assure her future in terms of economic, socio-cultural and political development. Its importance in translating the future of great nations cannot be overemphasized. That is why every government in our contemporary world makes it a fundamental obligation to provide education for its citizens. The Longman Dictionary defines Education as “the result of the teaching or the training of mind and character” Education apart from inculcating knowledge is also aimed at formulation of character. Education is the formulation of the human person in view of the person’s final end and the dignity of the society. Education at all levels seeks to draw out the good potential in people, to replace error with truth, ignorance and incompetence with knowledge and competence. Furthermore, education leads to wisdom and discipline which constitute the foundation of human happiness

In recent time, clothing a second skin to man appears to have lost its value amongst undergraduates in universities especially female. Newman (2000) and Muluhan and Foire (1990), stated that unlike other animals, man supplements the body covering provided by nature with clothing a second skin. Since clothing is a second skin to man, then it becomes worrisome that today undergraduates in the Nigerian universities rather go half clothed.

Indecent appearance has come to characterize the dress pattern of many students on the campuses of higher institutions of learning in Nigeria. There is hardly any higher institution of learning in country that is not faced with this nauseating problem.

Egwinc (2010) referred to indecent dressing in a more specific term is the attitude of some one male or female that dresses to show off parts of the body such as the breasts, buttocks or even the underwear particularly those of the ladies that need to be covered

According to Gushee. D.P (2004) indecent appearance is improper and inacceptable dressing which is so provocative and offensive because it reveals the high rate of moral decadence in the society of our time.

Okoro.W (2006) Opines that indecent dressing is a social malady that cuts across many countries of the world. Indecent dressing is caused by various factors such as poor parenting peer group wrong use of internet, fading values as well as demonic influence.

World encyclopedia Beitannica (2005) indicates that some of the most basic function of dressing are to provide warmth and protection to beautifying or enhance sexual appeal and to supply information about the wearer (like age, sex, social status occupation) e.t.c but students on campuses as turn dressing to another thing.

Fountain University is one of the best universities in Nigeria when it has to do with dressing code. The management of the University give strict warning to students against indecent dressing. Stated that all students must be properly dressed in line with the University dress code. When caught for the offence he/she shall face one semester suspension and the parent shall be invited. Based on the background the researcher wants to investigate the perception of fountain University students on the dress code of the university
