USC Aiken Basketball Prepares For Upcoming Season

Vince Alexander has certainly put USC Aiken basketball on the national map. In the last 2 seasons, the Pacers have won 52 games and made back-to-back trips to the Division II National tournament.

During this time, Coach Alexander has recruited big-time talent to Aiken…but this year..he’s going to have to find a way to replace Chris Commons, the 2-time Peach Belt Conference player of the year.

This year’s roster features five new players and Coach Alexander doesn’t expect to his team to have much of a drop-off from the previous two years.

Fall fashion trends – expert advice from those who know

(ARA) – Looking for insight into what your college student wants to wear to school this fall? Want them to fit in with their peers, but still look respectable? Want to know the secrets to saving a buck?

The Fashion Design and Fashion Merchandising students and instructors at The Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale offer some advice and insight on fall fashion trends.

“Global cultures influence the colorful mosaic of fall ’09, creating a new universal attitude,” says Chelsea Rousso, a fashion design instructor at The Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale. “Through a mixture of motifs, layering occurs, allowing for uniqueness and individuality. Deep ethnic colors and patterns are appearing on scarves, skirts and knit dresses worn over leggings or textured tights. These ‘boho’ looks capture the relaxed approach to the easy-does-it mind-set.”

Rousso, who is currently writing a book on fashion forecasting, has more than 20 years experience as a designer and design director in the New York fashion world, including Datiani. As business in the early ‘90s was changing, she developed the concept for an artisan-inspired collection called Earth Song, clothing with natural and earthy appeal that was sold to stores and catalogs throughout the United States. “I am now committed to ‘giving back’ through teaching,” she says.
