One of United Kingdom's top universities has been called out on the internet after the school released a very sexist bulletin directed to their female students who are about to graduate.
Student's were outraged after they registered for their graduation ceremony at the Queen's University in Belfast. After registration, students revealed that they received a series of dress code rules that was written by an unidentified male alumni who now owns a tailoring company.

According to the Belfast Telegraph, the bulletin read: "Possibly the biggest mistake I see at graduation is girls treating the event like a night out. This graduation ceremony should be treated as a formal event and the dress code should match this. Short skirts and cleavage bearing outfits are totally out of the question. Think more Grace Kelly and less Kim Kardashian, at least until the graduation is over: You can always change to your party attire before you head out to celebrate."
The bulletin also included a short dress code rule for the male graduates which simply stated, "Men, please stick to leather and dark coloured shoes for the ceremony."
A post-graduate student at the University spoke out about the bulletin saying, "This is completely sexist, it actually feels very degrading. The most offensive part of it all is that it confirms the stereotypical good girl pitting her against the stereotypical bad girl."
After the outrage, the sexist bulletin was revised and then hours later it was completely removed from the Queen's University website.
