Hopkins Threads highlights diverse student fashion
Reporting about the SGA, not a record of it: The Johns Hopkins News-Letter published this and the SGA did not write it, file it, or approve it. The archive holds it because the article itself uses the phrases “sga” and “student government”.
Summary
- This Johns Hopkins News-Letter article reports on the SGA-approved formation and planned growth of the student fashion club Hopkins Threads.
- The paper reported that freshman Caroline McCown founded the club and said she hopes it will build community and promote fashion as self-expression and a way to boost confidence.
- The article says McCown photographs students in distinctive outfits, then posts the images on Facebook and Tumblr with captions about their clothing.
- According to the reporter, McCown currently takes all the photographs and has a group of about ten students expected to become involved next fall.
- The article adds that this spring is a trial run, with plans for club members to submit photographs and for weekly albums to be posted next year.
