Arizona State University students Chloe Bosmeny and Elizabeth Roman have created a Tempe version of a successful Clothing Swap that originally took place only in Phoenix. Working with CO-OPhx founder Kelsey Wong they put on the Clothing Swap on the afternoon of March 3rd. The event attracted over 60 people to the house on the edge of ASU campus where the Swap was put on. The Clothing Swap is Tempe’s first and is giving birth to a new forum for people from the city’s fashion community to meet up and network. Bosmeny and Roman invited local fashion bloggers who even set up booths with DIY activities. The girls behind Clothing Swap Tempe even have plans for another Swap in April, hoping to continue building the fashion-minded community of Tempe.
If you're familiar with J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series, then chances are you probably know about the game of Quidditch. But chances also are you never imagined the magical game would take place in real life. Quidditch is a fast-growing sport in the U.S. and around the world, and ASU has its very own team that is an official member the International Quidditch Association. While the sport is based on the fictional game from the book series, it incorporates many different elements from other sports like basketball, rugby and dodgeball. However, Quidditch is more than just a game- it is its own subculture and a very tight-knit community.
