Fabyan Georges \u02bc26, president of the UCO, is proud that the event dramatically highlighted what the UCO stands for as one of the largest clubs on campus.<\/p>\n
\u201cPeople are able to showcase cultural exchange, diversity and where they’re really from,” Georges said. “This is an event that is able to showcase that at its greatest and being able to show that the Scranton community is able to come together and showcase that we are not a school of students who are different, but students who can come together, unite and be all alike as we are all humans.\u201d<\/p>\n
He is also proud of the effect the fashion show has on the student body as a whole.<\/p>\n
\u201cPeople who join in are typically scared and not sure if they’re ready. Once they rip that Band-Aid off, it’s an event that is full of excitement and fun,\u201d Georges said.<\/p>\n
The final part of the show was the evening\u2019s highlight: Rep Your Flag, an opportunity for students to display their countries’ flags.\u00a0Students whose cultural heritage spanned 15 countries took part in the section, wearing vibrant outfits reflecting the cultures they come from.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"By Marcus Smith ’27, Student Correspondent University of Scranton students from all cultures and backgrounds celebrated their heritage…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":37702,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[23132,23129,178,180,179,274,23130,23131],"class_list":["post-37701","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-scranton","tag-asia-club","tag-fashion-show","tag-scranton","tag-scranton-headlines","tag-scranton-news","tag-the-university-of-scranton","tag-uco","tag-united-cultures-organization"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/37701","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=37701"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/37701\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/37702"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=37701"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=37701"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=37701"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
