This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Elon chapter.

Sports Illustrated is making history this year, and we are so happy to see the magazine’s progress! For the first time ever, Sports Illustrated is displaying three different very beautiful ladies on the covers- Ronda Rousey, Ashley Graham and Hailey Clauson!

“Every single woman that is booked for this magazine is cover worthy,” explained Assistant Managing Editor MJ Day to SSI.com. “The collective beauty in this magazine is overwhelming. SI has always been and will always be about the models; the pictures you see here are a celebration of them.”

We couldn’t agree more with Day. The cover pictures embrace different shapes and sizes, and we are thrilled to see this type of change for 2016. We are hopeful that women of all shapes, sizes and races will continue to be embraced. Now go and get your own copy of the magazine, collegiettes!
