Sewanee Style Flashback: 1979

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

Some photos of Sewanee style, courtesy of the 1979 yearbook… ladies, let’s just be glad the mustache is no longer on the facial hair forefront.

Highlanders, Wellingtons, and none for Gretchen Weiners on the end…

Not at all style, but, yes, that says, “Jesus was a Phi.” 

I want to see what their dates are wearing…

Wallabies! …and probably some reefer 

The skirts may have gotten shorter, but we’re just as preppy… 

It’s good to know some things haven’t changed.
