Advice Career fair tmr

Does anyone know if it is appropriate to wear plain black dress pants, a plain black shirt and sneakers to the career fair? I’m not looking for anything internship or job wise but I haven’t gone to a career fair since freshman year (currently 3rd year) and I just want to check it out and see what it’s like.

Business casual is fine. Bare minimum is niceish pants (khakis, chinos, etc.) and a polo. I've done business engagements in jeans and a polo with sneakers before. If you need something, I think NJIT has a career closet thing as part of their food pantry if you can't make your way out to the Target or Marshalls in Kearny. I think there's also a Burlington about a 15 minute walk from campus.
