They didn't count on how feisty the female student body was going to be -the next day bras and panties (and boxers/briefs) and whatever else we could find at the local thrift shops festooned all of the administration offices. It was awesome.
They relented right away, especially because this was in SoCal, so stuff dried outside in an hour or less, generally.
I'm lucky in that I can wear what are basically pajamas (scrubs) for work. They don't take much room in my closet and they dry on a rack super quick.
