I'm an incomming freshman to marshall and i'm starting to put together lists of what i need to bring. will i need to bring buiness attire with me for something during my first semester? i'm a girl so this isn't as easy as a jacket and tie

gioosorio

yeah you should. there's probably an organization or more that you'll join in which you need such attire.

Bumpppp. Any other input?

GreekTrojan

Yes you should. Many class group presentations are business attire. Interviews will also require it. Might as well have it with you.

Definitely bring business attire. You'll need it for class presentations, nice events, and for looking good to impress people (recruiters, interviewers, etc).

If you plan on participating in any overseas programs, such as LINC or GLP, you will need about 2 suits, and a variety of collared shirts

My D was annoyed that she didn't have what she considered business attire, so she missed a significant number of free meals because you were supposed to come dressed in business attire. Her business major room mate went & enjoyed many free meals. She'll be bringing business attire when she goes back this fall (she acquired quite a bit this summer for her internship).
She has a nice blazer, some nice tops, dress slacks & a few nice skirts. She was able to get some pieces inexpensively at Macy's & others at Ross. Nordstrom's Rack had a lot, but unfortunately not in her size. Nice blazers & jackets are useful for many functions (also keeps you warm in A/C).
