Club Chic promotes women empowerment
Many eager students entered the assembly in the Memorial Student Center Ballroom on Sept. 6 for Open House in hopes of discovering ways to become more involved on campus during the Fall semester.
Familiar tables such as Greeks, honor societies, and well-established organizations that have impacted the campus were set up.
Club Chic stood out among many because of its catchy name and overall unique purpose. Its purpose is to offer young women the opportunity to evolve without the pressure of grades, judgment, and the perceptions that keep women suppressed.
In addition, young women gain leadership skills through discussion and mentoring.
Kariss Gordon, president of Club Chic, said, "I thought this would be a perfect place where Prairie View women can come and be women. We welcome them with open arms through networking, community service, and a non-discriminative safe haven for us (women)."
Most, do not know that the legacy of Club Chic goes beyond fall 2012.
"Club Chic came about because of Donnie Evans. The club caters toward representing elegant women in a respectful manner. The organization was founded in 1965," said Gordon.
The organization's purpose and goals are the same as those of the members in the late 60s, but even today, they serve a great purpose.
The impact that Club Chic has already made is only the new-beginning of great things that will continue to flourish for years to come.
Every Tuesday from 6 to 8 p.m., meetings are held with ladies filling the MSC lounge room, engaged with two hours worth of informative and heart to heart sessions.
With an astounding membership of 205 ladies, the organization is building a sisterhood, which allows young women to be their best at all times; through conversation, self-enhancing tips for jobs and lifestyle methods, and serving as a sisterhood for young ladies to support themselves through each other.
