Has the world gone mad?  What possible reason could be behind this apart
from Tabloid stirring? What evidence have you been given to support such
a move? What is the reason behind this?  

I would never consider banning hoodies or hats.  Consider headscarves
(worn for both religious and reasons of illness), turbans, flat caps,
rain hoods ... 

Crazy!

Subject: Library policies on hats and clothing


Could anyone advise on policies they have for students wearing
hats/hoodies in libraries? We are being pressured to implement the
policy of no hats/hoodies here, I'd welcome opinions as personally it
makes no difference to me if students choose to wear hats or not!
 
Thankyou!
