you have gently used professional business

about freeing up some space in your closet by

Services Office is starting a Clothing
Campaign to collect and make available
business attire for students. Please bring your
clean, gently used items to the Career Services
Office at your convenience.
Students: Please, ask your parents to
donate to our clothing campaign, as well.
