LYDIA ZARGANIS Foghorn Staff Writer

A number of business and arts and science students who expected a graduation ceremony in December might have to wait until May, student officers announced in this past Tuesday's senate meeting. Senior Class Representatives Jennyjohnson and Joseph Montano Jr. said that several students have approached them about the problem. Johnson said that the students were told that an extra ceremony would be offered in December due to overcrowding at the May graduation. The students are now being informed that there are no open dates for Saint Ignatius Church in December and that there will be no TIFFANY MALESHIFSK ceremony for them. "I already made the plans to go back to Europe after I graduate in December," said Powell to the People — Next Prez?

Who says life's over at 50? It won't be heard from the more than 600 students attending the Fromm Institute. "They're here just for the joy of learn­ ing," said the institute's program director, Robert Fordham. For almost 20 years, retired senior citi­ zens have been attending classes at the Institute. The only requirement for admittance, according to Fordham, is the desire to learn. The Institute, which is a private non­ profit organization, does not discriminate students based on financial status or their previous learning experience. The Institute, which holds three, eight- week sessions a year, asks for a $100 membership fee for each session, said Fordham. Those who cannot afford the fee are given scholarships. "No one is denied," said Fordham.

Street-style fashion inspires and invokes new ideas for designers. It brings style, atti­ tude and unique glamour to the fashion industry. I he streets have become a fashion mecca for designers and their followers. But who's following who, the designers follow street styles or vice-versa? The streets of New York and London, for instance, are influentia grounds where street-style fashions originate. Most ofthe trends are set by kids. Kids are more inventive and creative with what they wear, primarily because they lack the money for brand-name labels, Ragwood Manager Debbie Chapman said. They resort to thrift and vintage stores for clothes, Chapman added. Kids take thrift-store finds and create their own original looks. The styles they end-up creating are often unique. The one-of-a-kind quality, then, attracts designers. Designers take a look or style one step fur­ ther and, perhaps, modify it a little. The adoption ot street-style fashions affect the seasonal collections in the fashion industry. Street fashions influence a California-based women's wear company, XOXO. Their "cre­ ativity and designs are based on what they see on the street," XOXO President Gregg Fiene said in Womens Wear Daily. Part ofthe reason of adopting street style is it's a look that people are already wearing. So, the items are most likely to sell. Salability, wearability, quality, and afford­ able prices are key points to consider in fashion design, BCBG Designer Max Azria said in Women's Wear Daily. Quality, wearability and style also affect re­ tailers' decisions. When selecting items to sell in her store, Ragwood Manager/Buyer Debbie Chapman said "I look for classic styles with an edge. I want to sell clothes that people can wear for several seasons. Garments also have to look like they're well-made," she added. Fall definitely offers sophisticated styles with cutting-edge looks. "The hottest items are vinyl, fitted shirts, hipster pants (empha­ sizing on the hips rather than the waist fur-trimmed jackets, nylon and skinny pants. Sleek, shiny fabrics are also big," Chapman said. lor another retailer, wearability and qual- uv are the key factors. "The newest, most different and most exciting items are what I look tor," Dinostore Manager/Buyer Ron Dotson said. Fitted clothes are best for this .eason, he added. Street-style fashions also carry an underly­ ing interest in music. Most street-style fashions can be associated to certain musical Barn jacket by Jules & genres — punk, hip-hop, grunge and techno.
