from Editor In Chie,:Culture Shock

I hope everyone already has their Culture Shock
Fashion Show tickets because they are selling out
fast. If you have not yet bought them make sure you do
because they will most likely be sold out by tomorrow
(Wednesday)!! So scrounge for your money and pay a
visit to Mr. West or to the Accounting office because
you do not want to miss this huge event that everyone
has worked so hard on.

Material World: notes from Editor In Chief,

I truly hope that everyone got a chance to go to Material World!! It was better than ever. They had stands from all over the world as well as a new addition with the computer and machine side to it. I got to see up close the new Gerber software including V-Stitcher and all of the Juki machines too! The most important piece that I got from the trip,however, was a website that I wasn't too familiar with. www.stylecareers.com It is the LARGEST, FASHION ONLY job listing website on the internet!! Along with this website they also have www.stylesalaries.com, www.styleportfolios.com, www.styledispatch.com, www.fashioncareerfairs.com, and www.mayorofthemall.com. All of these are FREE if you are looking for a job and there are so many opportunities to fing jobs and internships! Check it out!
