We hardly ever hire men without beards. Lack of a beard is viewed with some suspicion. Beardless men are required to submit a doctor's certificate that there are medical or genetic reasons for them to remain without facial hair. :-) Seriously, though, beards are like any other aspect of personal appearance. Kept neat they are unlikely to offend anyone you're likely to be willing to work for. [Further disclaimer: Gould/CSD Urbana does not really insist on beards on male or female employees. Really.] -- scott preece gould/csd - urbana uucp: ihnp4!uiucdcs!ccvaxa!preece arpa: preece@gswd-vms
