I work at the local Community College as a librarian as well as adjunct history teacher, and I have worn my kilt on several occasions since I started working there. As others have said, there will be always be a few knuckleheads, but most of my students, and certainly all of my fellow librarians were nothing but positive about it!

I had one young man make a snide comment about a "dress" as I walked through the halls to class one day, and I simply stopped and explained to him the history of the kilt, and how it was a symbol of my heritage. After a good 5-minute "kilt lecture" he realised he shouldn't have challenged me to "intellectual combat" and apologised.

So, I say wear it, and wear it wi' pride. Ignore the knuckleheads, and revel in the attention from all of your female classmates -- just don't tell my wife I said that! :mrgreen:

I've talked about this before, but there are several of us who either work at a college or attend one -- we need to form a "Kilted on Campus" group!

Cheers,

T.
