Hey. I just registered and haven't received the packet in the mail yet. I was wondering if anyone could post the girl's dress code guidelines. Thanks.

The Forum on Law and CSI has enjoyed an excellent reputation in the Washington, D.C. community as a result of the
high standard of professionalism our students exemplify. To ensure that this standard is maintained, all students are
expected to exercise professional discretion and sound judgment with their attire, personal appearance and habits and to
maintain a professional image at the Forum.
The following is a breakdown of daily clothing requirements:
own arrangements to get to the airport in time for your flight. You must sign out with our Office Coordinator before
departing. We strongly recommend that you call SuperShuttle in advance to make reservations to be driven to the
airport. They can be contacted at www.supershuttle.com or (800) 258-3826.
If you are arriving a day early or staying a day late, you must make your own arrangements with a hotel. Keep in mind
that our shuttle service is only available on the first and last day of the Forum and that forum staff will only be on hand
and responsible for students during the time of the Forum. Some hotels that are convenient to the forum site are listed

ok. so... will we need to book our own hotel rooms or are they provided by the forum?

Ohh well I was just wonderin if we can wear dickies and a collared shirt cuz I got a whole lot of those, anywho several more weeks y'all till we go to D.C. Whoo hooooo

The hotel rooms are already booked for us

i am curinne and i attended last year and i would just like to say to the girls wear flats! do not wear heels i know they look nice but your feet will kill. You walk all over the place and at the hotel they make you walk up the stairs because they need the elevators for other guests..i had to go up 11 flights of stairs in my high heels...i was nervous about the dress code and i did just fine many girls wore nice summer dresses and come wore suits. Make sure you bring some "normal" clothes because they let you change when stuff is done. "well they let us anyway" i hope i helped and if you have any questions you can email me at demeuse42@yahoo.com. I hope i helped:]
