What do you wear to work?

Is what you wear truly your choice?

Or is it a reflection of how your workplace signals you are expected to look?

What employees wear is often assumed to be a personal decision, but in reality, those choices are often shaped by workplace norms, informal cues and broader power structures.

Clothing can affect how professionalism is judged, how credibility and organizational fit are assigned and how comfortable someone feels simply existing at work.

When Corina Farai Makore began her PhD at the University of Windsor, she wasn’t just pursuing a long-held personal goal, she was equipping herself to change a system.

As healthcare manager at the South West Detention Centre in Windsor, Makore leads 50 nurses and oversees a 10-bed infirmary providing 24/7 care for incarcerated patients.

At the same time, she is a scholar using her doctoral research to guide policy reform and strengthen correctional nursing in Ontario.

Whether it’s hitting a daily step goal, taking a stretch break at the office or dropping into a spin class, regular physical activity has undeniable benefits.

While warmer spring weather seems to be slow to arrive this year, one of the surest signs of spring on campus is the often-noisy activity of Canada geese.

For first-year law students at the University of Windsor, learning about access to justice often begins in the classroom.

But on March 20, that learning extended beyond campus, onto the lands of Aamjiwnaang First Nation.

Supported by UWindsor’s Article U: Diversity, Indigeneity, and Anti-Racism Professional Development Fund and Windsor Law, students in the Access to Justice course travelled to the community near Sarnia for a day of land-based, experiential learning centred on environmental and treaty rights.
