Whether you pay attention to it, fashion, with its designer label, dry-clean only mitts, has a firm hold on the campus. Everywhere you look, capri pants, three-quarter length shirts and puffy polar vests can be seen on students. The names are just as prevalent as the styles. Emblazoned across shirts and bags, smattered all over hats, and just about every other article of clothing one can think of, the logos have become a part of fashion in and of itself. As can be expected on a campus of some 35,000 students, the answers to such questions vary.
Some students stick with the mass appeal of big-name companies.
I like the styles. I guess it is trendy, but it's also dependable stuff. Other students expressed a distinctly opposite view. When asked where he goes shopping for clothes, Bruce Sailer, a sophomore computer science major, was hesitant to theoretically call what he does shopping. If I need clothes I go to Hecht's.
