When dressing for interviews, stay classy
I figured I would write a column for all those graduating seniors about how to look professional on the job or for anyone doing internships. Remember, in order to look the part you also need to dress the part, so have a little fun with your work attire. Wrong: Skinny-legged trousers Right: Wide-legged trousers Why: A good pair of dress pants will flatter your body and make you look right for any occasion.
Greek life to receive new organization
As of now, there are three Greek chapters on the SDSU campus; the Greek Programming Board; the Panhellenic Council, which oversees the women’s chapter; and the Interfraternity Council, which oversees the men’s chapter. This all will be changing so SDSU will have only two chapters: the IFC and the PHC.
Spruce up male fashion with shoes, suits and ties
I realized the other day that all year I have written my fashion column based on women’s clothing, and I decided I would offer something for my many guy friends. I hope you enjoy it. Wrong: Men’s Giorgio Brutini Baby Calf 2019 Right: EL Rey Blacklite Special Why?: I am very jealous of anyone who can pull off shorts and tennis shoes together and have them look stylish.
Spruce up April using hairstyles and glasses
Fashion may not be my major (although I am starting to think it should be), but it is definitely one of my top interests. The last time I predicted spring to be right around the corner, we received more snow, so I will not do that again. I hope you thoroughly enjoy my column this week, inspired simply by some of my best friends as well as TLC’s What Not to Wear.
South Dakota has a case of the broken hearts
There is a silent killer among South Dakotans: heart disease-the number one cause of death for South Dakota men and women. In response to this, Gov. Mike Rounds declared February as American Heart Month for the state, with February being chosen due to the association with hearts and Valentine’s Day.
Don’t get caught wearing a Canadian tuxedo
Hey, it’s time for another list of Em’s fashion findings. Please remember I am only a columnist and you may not agree with what I am saying is fashionable in my column, but I make this list up from what I like to wear or what I see around campus. Please don’t take offense if you don’t agree with what I find fashionable.

Want to try Jollof rice? Check out Africa Nite
The African Students Association at SDSU is hosting Africa Nite in the Volstorff Ballroom on Feb. 15 from 6 to 9 p.m. “We hope the night will change people’s view of Africa. We want them to know it is a small continent with the most natural resources,” said Derrick Okine, ASA president.
Writing center brings competition to campus
The SDSU Writing Center is hosting a writing competition during International Writing Center Week, Feb. 8 through 13. Interested students should submit an original limerick, haiku, poem, anecdote or narrative (fictional or non-fictional) of fewer than 50 words to the Writing Center.
Suggestions for looking good on campus
Hey! I am Emily, but I mainly go by Em, and I will be doing fashion articles. I know you may see me around campus many times and probably ask yourself how I know anything about fashion. Alas, I know more about fashion than you may think. Even though I don’t agree with some of it because my sweats are definitely my favorite fashion accessory, my fashion findings still are right to say that leggings do look better.
