I currently am the Director of Operations of Revival Apparel, a startup company a classmate of mine started in 2016. As his best friend, I became heavily involved with the company and now am not only an employee, but a co-owner as well. We create premium t-shirts from our homes and sell them across the United States; a dream of ours has now become a reality, and each and every day, we are tasked with new ideas and obstacles we must face to keep our company alive and thriving, which is difficult to ask of two seventeen-year-olds, who must not only work on the business, but go to high school as well. With its astounding professors, millions of alumni, and breathtaking technology, Georgia Tech would provide us with the connections and resources

Not all high school aged students are eager to go onto a college or a university and this can be for many reasons: perhaps they are not ready to leave home; cannot afford; they are academically challenged; not sure what they want to major in; the list can go on and on. My wish for these young adults is for them to

The Victorian Era is well known for puffy skirts and restricting formal garments while the Progressive Era was known for its more flamboyant attire and the World War II Era for its more conservative style to ration for the war. The history of clothing and fashion calls to question its importance in distinguishing identities of different groups of people as well as marking the different stages of the country’s cultural, political, and economic history. How are the different clothing styles reflective of the values and lifestyle of the multicultural United States and more importantly, how did it contribute to the creation of the American identity? 17th century inhabitants of the North American continent exhibited vastly different wardrobe choices

Georgia Tech is one of the most exalted schools in southern Georgia; every gifted student has considered applying at one point or another. The extreme difficulty and strenuous workload of some of the courses, in particular the formidable mathematical courses, puts off many from further consideration or even attempting the grind. However, I consider myself a risk-taker. I don’t want to waste my time taking an effortless, easy journey through college. Georgia Tech, although difficult, will be completely worth the while. This school will encourage me to achieve great things, and these things will take so much time and effort that my competition will never even have dreamed of accomplishing these goals. Victory at Georgia Tech would mean so much

One experience that displays this archetype was when I had to let go of an unhealthy friendship, an emotional battle that I had to deal
In “Millennium Dress History: Artifacts as Harbingers of Change” Annette Lynch and Mitchel D. Strauss offers a discussion about the complexities of dress history. They define cultural authentication as “analyzing the process by which an outside aesthetic influence is integrated into and becomes a part of the existing style tradition.” So is cultural authentication and authenticity the same?
