Abstract
This study assessed indecent dressing: a serious encroachment on our moral values. Education is considered to be the bed-rock of development of any nation; hence the call by governments for “education for all”. However, certain developments over the past years seem to be militating against this vision. Notable among them is the craze for the so-called fashion which has resulted in nudity among the teaming youth on Ibadan state polytechnic campus. This paper therefore sought to investigate the impacts or effects nudity or indecent dressing has on the academic performance of Ibadan state polytechnic students in Nigeria. This was done by employing the descriptive (qualitative) method of research to describe the relationship between variables. The research strategy used was a case study using students (203), teaching (126) and non-teaching staff (21) of Ibadan state polytechnic as the accessible population. Data were collected for the study by the employment of the survey technique in which 350 questionnaire copies were administered to the accessible population. This was combined with the participant observant approach where indecent dressings were observed and recorded. A main finding of the study is that about 60% of Ibadan state polytechnic students dress indecently. And out of this, about 80% are females while 20% are males. The study further revealed that provocative dressing or indecent dressing destructs the attention of both students and lecturers during lectures. Also, some leakages of examination questions on Ibadan state polytechnic campus can be attributed to sexual favours from lecturers as a result of indecent dressing.
