I recently accepted a position at an aggy system school. I got an email from the deans office requesting that we wear maroon for our official portrait photo. I don't own any maroon and I am torn as to buying a maroon shirt and subsequently burning it after the photo or just go with the standard blue job interview suit.

Go to Walmart buy a Maroon shirt, take the photo then take shirt back to Walmart and say it did not fit right and get refund
Easy fix.
By a white Nike shirt with a maroon swoosh on the chest. If boss pitches a fit simply tell him that he never specified how much maroon to wear and in point of fact, you are wearing maroon.
Well, I know it ain't TAMUK because they have been pissed about being part of aTm since it was forced on em.
My advise....it is for the job.....do what they ask 9-5 and do what you want the rest of the time. I have worn stuff I didnt like because it was work required......but....you dont have to smile for the damned photo!

I believe you should've posed a different question, at an earlier date. "Should I accept a position at an aggy system school?" To which the answer would've been a resounding...hell f*** naw have you lost your damn mind? Lol
Money just ranked A&M at #18 in the US, and the best school in Texas. Grow a pair and get the shirt. They won't make you wear it every day....trust me.

There is no way that A&M is the 18th best University in the nation. That is just ridiculous. What was the criteria?
18th best to get a quality education but not have a huge debt load when you leave. It's the "bang for your buck" argument. Yawn.
Don't shoot the messenger.
The Best Colleges in America, Ranked by Value
Going to college shouldn’t mean a lifetime of debt. To find the schools that successfully combine quality and affordability, MONEY weighed more than 19,000 data points, including tuition fees, family borrowing, and career earnings.

A&M is situated between Yale and Duke. Schools above include Harvard, Berkeley, Stanford, MIT. Yawn huh?
There's no way to quantify an education on a cost basis analysis. This is simply published to do exactly what's happening now---- cause debates.
A great matrix to use would be "average starting salary upon graduation in certain fields" or lifetime earning per degree-- etc etc.
Plus earnings immediately after undergrad which science/engineering degree heavy schools always top.
