EXPECTED ENSEMBLE | While senior Ma’rion Griffin presented a relaxed look with a hoodie, he predicted a similar range in clothing for the other students throughout the week. “I’d expect to see people wear pajamas, [because] it’s a half day, and it’s chill.” Griffin said. “I saw a lot of pajamas and joggers too.”

SNEAKER ESSENTIALS | For midterms, sophomore Ginger Caballero and her sister April Callabero not only want to take midterms staying comfortable, but in style. Ginger Caballero puts value in presenting her shoes as it reminds her of some of her favorite things while she takes her exams. “They’re pink like pigs, my favorite animal, and they match my dad’s CD that he has,” Caballero said.

ARRAY OF ACCESSORIES | While displaying a unique belt as a personal favorite accessory, sophomore Emily Smith gives a brief overview on each fashionable clothing item that completes the full midterm outfit.”My shirt is from a punk rock flea market, the belt is thrifted, the pants are also thrifted, and the demonians are from Plato’s,” Smith said.

COMFORT IS KEY | When it comes to exam-taking, freshman Grace Olson prioritizes comfort. “My thought on midterm style is that you’re only there for a few hours, and you’re taking tests, so be as comfy as you can,” Olson said.
