Abstract

Campus Encounters of the Clothing Kind brings 4-H youth to the University of Nebraska East Campus for three days to explore the areas of textiles, clothing and design. Youth gain computer experience in creating a T-shirt design, use a serger sewing machine to expand their sewing skills, explore fibers through textile experiments, increase their insight into historical clothing, and learn about careers. Impact of this program was measured through a survey of 34 past participants. Youth indicated the experience was very positive, very worthwhile, a good investment, and were enlightened about clothing, textiles and design.
