[hand drawing] suitcases "Lovely to Look At" While you dream, shop, and pack, you ask: "What do SUIowans wears? What will I need?" Remember that SUI's first impression of you will come from your appearance, so use your judgment and taste to make that impression favorable. Remember, also, that your outfits are all new to the campus, so don't toss out something old; we've never seen it before. SUI's casual atmosphere includes the clothes SUIowans wear. You'll be well dressed for almost any event in a wool skirt and sweater (although Iowa City is still warm in September, some rush the season and wear wool right away). With bobby socks and tennies, your sweater and skirt will take you to classes and meeting; change to flats and hose and you're ready for an evening date. If the thermometer shoots up suddenly, a crisp blouse with your wool skirt or a dark cotton dress is definitely appropriate. Matched sweater and skirt combinations, worn with flats, will be perfect standbys for weekend dates. A basic wool dress or suit will take you to Sunday dinner, church, teas, plays and concerts. If you choose a simple, versatile style, you can change its appearance with different accessories. You'll want to bring a cocktail dress for all-University dances and formals; strictly formal attire is rarely seen at SUI. As a coed, you'll need some comfortable, simple outfits for lounging in the dorms, fall and spring picnics, and other casual events. Bermudas and slacks or levis, worn with sweatshirts and tennies, will come in handy for these occasions. Bring your bathing suit, since you'll be doing lots of sunbathing in the spring. You may even go swimming in one of the University's indoor pools, the Iowa City outdoor pool, or Lake Macbride. For protection against the elements, you'll need your trench coat or heavy wrap for wear on colder days. A blazer or car coat will serve you well when the sun dips behind the stadium walls at the Saturday football games. You'll find wool scarves, gloves, and an umbrella useful, and Iowa City winters usually call for snow boots for your walks to classes. You'll be wise to choose practical clothes that suit your budget, your personality, and your way of life at SUI when you're planning your wardrobe. 8
