Prettiest in Pink
On October 21 in the quad, the annual Pretty in Pink event was held. The festivities consisted of a fashion show, a dance demonstration, and a guest speaker.
Though the event is fun to the extent of comical, it is for a serious cause. Pretty in Pink is to raise awareness for breast cancer. Men of Taft College staged a fashion show competing against each other to decide who was prettiest in pink. Many of the participants were student athletes on various sports teams at TC.
The judges used the criteria of (1) outfit—how much pink was in the outfit, (2) presence, and (3) replies given in the question and answer portion of the competition. Dr. Chris Chung-We and Dr. Leigh Golling presided over the judging.
Barbara Shryver was the guest speaker. She spoke on Relay for Life, an organization that raises money to help fight cancer. Relay for Life has many local activities in Kern County that raise money for the charity.
The event was well attended with the crowd cheering for their favorite fashionista. The fashion show was hosted by the ASB while raising awareness on breast cancer.
