Thank you, WM. I'm no perfessor. A bit lower on the totem pole, for better or worse, merely a humble staffer. But yes, I'm partial to the college prof look myself.

Of course, no professor--or anybody on campus--dresses Ivy these days or anywhere close to it, except the occasional oddball like me. Even back in my era, when the lime green leisure suit ruled the planet, profs dressed far better than they do now.

Sartorial concerns aside, I've always enjoyed working on a university campus, if for no other reason than the great libraries and their generous borrowing times. I practically fill my bookshelves year by year with my university library loans.

^I agree with you on that. I'm in the market for some gunboats. Got my eye on a pair of old Hanovers.

WM now that's a solid look in that Topsman, you are knocking it out of the park recently

The cords and Paraboot combo looks great woof, quite inspiring for the weekend in fact.

That's a nice look derm, but agree the shoes not quite 'on point' - my option would be suede chukkas or 'grain' split toes with that ensemble, to add another texture to the mix.

Special mention in dispatches for new members Chipper, MJC and Leelo, great to have you on (the) board fellas

For trousers, there's just no need to look elsewhere.  ... unless budget is an issue.  The O'C's trousers don't come cheap, but for a quality item that should provide years of service, they hit the mark.

Just fyi, the cuffed cords I featured are Lands' End traditional fit plain front 10-wale cords. Pretty decent, especially for the price, although you have to be okay with a medium rise.
