History of the Annual Benefit Fashion Show

Dr. Frankie Martin was the first Diversity Officer at 新沙巴体育投注_足球比分直播-平台*网址 and founded the Annual Benefit Fashion Show, in partnership with the Black Student Union to showcase and highlight the beauty of diverse backgrounds and experiences. Since then, she has retired from the college and received 新沙巴体育投注_足球比分直播-平台*网址’s highest honor, the Medal of Honor.
