College provides slick apparel
Emily Walters
Arts & Culture Editor
Need a sharp outfit for an
important job interview?
Look no further than the
college for a professional ward­
robe.
The Clothes Closet is a
place on campus, run by the
Associated Student Government
(ASG), which has free clothing
available for anyone.
The Workforce Development
Center proposed the idea of
having a place at the college
where those looking for work
could find practical clothing.
According
to
ASG
Community Service Senator
Kalynn Stearens, who runs the
Clothes Closet, it opened two
years ago.
Where does the clothing
come from?
It is “provided by the stu­
dents and staff,” Stearens said.
The ASG office, located in
the Community Center, along­
side the cafeteria, accepts all
donations.
But be warned - the Clothes
Closet is not a dump for all
unwanted clothes. Student
Government will not be happy
if all the discards of the entire
student body find their way
into the ASG office.
“We provide just profes­
sional clothing and coats,” said
Stearens.
In other words, bring in suits
and jackets that are in good
condition. For this reason,
the Clothes Closet’s motto is
“Dress for Success.”
ASG also greatly appreci­
ates it when donators bring in
clean apparel, rather than items
covered in cat hair or grime.
For those who wish to
acquire smart attire from the
Clothes Closet, the process is
easy.
Simply stop by CC146, right
off the Fireside Lounge, any­
time from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on
Mondays and Wednesdays, or
11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesdays and
Thursdays.
Embarrassed about being
seen looking through free
apparel?
Have no fear.
ASG decided that it was
best to leave the Clothes Closet
unattended, in order to mini­
mize students’ mortification.
If students are nervous about
even being seen going into the
room ... becoming a master
of camouflage or honing ninja
skills may be the only ways to
get around that one.
