Year for Gear Could there be such a thing as an urban punk- rocker? Millikan students seemed to think so. Uni- sex campus styles ranged from ten gallon hats like Dave Tex Robeson ' s, to the Devo shades sold by Key Club at Homecoming. More refined tastes were exhibited by Muppet-happy RAMS such as Laura Marsh, who admired Miss Piggy ' s fluffy feather boas. Another popular fad was displayed by students who wore Lacoste alligator shirts, belts, and socks. Stuffed alligators seeking sweet revenge were viewed in shop windows wearing T-shirts with human figures sewn on them. Females bedecked themselves in everything from high-buttoned, bow-tied and old-fashioned lace collars to kilty plaid skirts and topsider shoes. Flannel and wool were also popularfashion mate- rials, and hand-knit sweaters kept students warm on cool winter nights. Last year ' s French knots and Bo Derek braids returned to top it all off, as well as sexy, short punk haircuts, but often these were covered with cowboy hats to match the suede fringe jack- ets and calf-high western-style boots. It wasn ' t at all uncommon for a student like Dante Carag to picture himself riding off into the sunset in the midst of an algebra lesson.
