Whatever Shall I Wear? Ahhh, yes. The most difficult decision of any socially awkward grad student. Well, this is a formal...or semi-formal. We need you looking crisp, clean and ready to slow dance to Richard Marx. So, guys throw on your best (or worst) tux, suit or jacket at least. Comb your hair and make sure your date buys you a boutonnière. And, ladies, you've got style and grace - put it all toward your best dress, highest heels (if that's your thing), and make sure your date buys you a corsage.
