Abstract

The purposes of a cross-college fashion show held at a Mid-Atlantic university were to: a) provide a platform for developing or emergent professionals to display their career talents, b) provide an opportunity for students to work collaboratively across multiple creative disciplines, c) give students a holistic academic experience, and d) support undergraduate scholarships. Such an interdisciplinary event for students from various majors across a university may stimulate the growth of knowledge and motivate real-life applications.
