We have partnered with JCPenney’s at Destiny USA in Syracuse to help you update your professional wardrobe at a VERY low cost. Students will receive free charter bus transportation from campus to the store and back, and all professional attire will be discounted 30% off the lowest ticketed price. Generally, this will result in up to 60% or more off all suits, shoes, blouses/shirts, socks/hosiery, ties, scarves, etc.  Parent's have accompanied their students in the past, which is just fine-especially if they bring THEIR credit card! :-)
