We've already covered why it's not that important to shower before you go to your classes in the morning (that is, if you would miss class instead, hygiene is more important), because here is one fundamental truth throughout your college years: Everyone Looks Frumpy.
As a matter of fact, there are people that will spend very good money to look as frumpy as possible. Paying extra for jeans that have more holes than swiss cheese, torn shirts, cut off sweatshirts etc etc.
A lot of it goes into the fact that college students don't have a lot of money in the first place, so for a lot of people there's no choice but to rock the thrift store finds.
There are some that do have money, but don't want to look like they do, so they will pay to look frumpy as well.
So, don't worry about spending a lot on your clothes, don't worry about getting all primped and primed for a 7 AM class, and don't be embarrassed about your junky car, because the only place that is more casual/frumpy than college is Wal-Mart.
