The symposium is an inter-college event where students openly discuss the topics explored within each college’s respective theme.
Every RC student will give either a Presentation or a Poster - either as a group or as an individual project. Every RC student will also be an audience member.
At Registration, you will receive a name tag with your schedule on it. The Symposium is organized into two, concurrent, sessions: Session I: 1:30 p.m. - 3:00 p.m. & Session II: 3:10 p.m. - 4:40 p.m.
The fashion industry in America is ever-evolving: it can popularize specific trends and in the next deem them a thing of the past. Fashion magazines, a key vehicle of communication in this fast-paced industry, utilize linguistic ideas to provide Americans with current trends in the world of fashion. Vogue magazine is one of many examples of the way in which language is used to influence the industry. This project analyzes the relationship between words and fashion trends from the headlines in Vogue’s issues dating back to the 1980’s.
