Description

What's it like to wear hijab at a place like FIT? Do you wear the same type of head covering to the mosque as you do for your workout? Do you dress the look up for weddings or other formal rituals? Hue, FIT's Alumni magazine, made a video on the subject for their Spring 2012 issue, featuring FIT students, alumni, a noted Muslim scholar, and Valerie Steele, director of The Museum at FIT.
