Dress-down day: great on its own, but even better when combined with a positive cause. Northwood has been selling pink T-shirts to fundraise for our Pink the Rink/Pink the Pitch weekend, and on Wednesday, Oct 4. Students who bought a t-shirt were allowed to dress-down if they wore their pink shirts. The result? Groups of bright pink milling about campus in support of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
The shirts have been sold in the dining hall for about a week at $15 each to raise funds for the Fitzpatrick Cancer Center in Plattsburgh, and anyone who purchased a shirt could wear it not just for the weekend games, but to class in what is usually considered out-of-dress-code. Most students bought a shirt and enjoyed dress-down privileges on Wednesday in support of a good cause.
