What's the news all my stylish people!
Welcome back to another year of stress, learning, but mostly a time to debut good looks even when you feel like a turd. Autumn is finally here and your Vassar contrast exec team is hard at work twisting and turning every gear possible to make sure our first semester back kicks off with a bang. Your Vassar contrast team is ready this year to take the larger Vassar community on a spin. We're more than just your simple ~style~ team, we're dedicated to keeping a keen eye on the greatest style, fashion, and art our eyes can spot.
Now, you may be wondering "Hey, what the use? How is any of this possible and who the hell is putting this all together?"
Well my friend, meet your bombin' exec board dedicated to redefining mixed patterns and over starched crease lines.

Kristell Taylor, Treasurer
Hi I'm Kristell and I am the Treasurer for Contrast this year. I'm currently a junior and a Neuroscience and Behavior major. Last year I was a part of the fashion show and I'm thrilled that I have the opportunity to be more involved with Contrast this year. I loved the "getting out of the Vassar bubble" theme from last semester's issue, so I'm really excited about our next issue since we have a very creative team putting it all together! I have a feeling you'll all love the ideas we're throwing around right now.

Taylor Pratt, Men's Style
“Townie Tay” was formed from brother Adam’s rib, raised in Poughkeepsie and will never leave until the demise of the post-grad apocalypse. An Urban Studies major with focuses in Geography & Architecture and a desire to debase the inherent colonizing/hegemonic nature of architecture. Tay’s commitment to Contrast aims to sharpen, question and articulate more clearly, the nuanced plurality of lifestyles and voices within the Vassar community. Fuck it though, I just want to change where this college is going and what it’s erasing while adding some minimalist layers along the way.
