Big Red Threads
Help Us Dress for Success!
Dressing professionally is a part of college life at the Cornell Peter and Stephanie Nolan School of Hotel Administration. Without appropriate attire, a student could miss out on important — even life changing — experiences. Help make that dress–for–success difference by donating new and gently used business attire to Big Red Threads, a professional clothing closet that provides students with work apparel free of charge.
Big Red Threads collects and distributes wardrobe items from faculty, staff, alumni and members of the NYC Cornell Club (our program partners). We also accept cash donations.
The Big Red Threads boutique is located in 237 Statler Hall. It is open and available to all SC Johnson College of Business students Monday – Friday by appointment.
