TC 2 -- manufacturer of the NX16 body scanner at Baylor -- has been a leader in developing the Size USA database with more than 11,000 volunteer participants in 12 United States locations.
"it's great for students to experiment with the technology and get a jump on it," said Dr. Jay Yoo, an assistant professor of family and consumer sciences who teaches fashion theory and consumer behavior at Baylor.
One of the first volunteers to step into Baylor's booth, Yoo gave a heads-up to wannabe users.
"Unless you're a super-model, the scan is unforgiving," he said. "It's one thing for 18- to 22-year-old students to do this, but when I got in there, I took a deep breath and held my stomach in."
Baylor University's program for apparel merchandising, design and product development has been ranked among the country's 20 best fashion schools by Fashionista, an influential blog which focuses on trends, events, companies and personalities in the fashion world. Fashionista weighed factors such as jobs procured, opinions of people in the fashion industry and standout program offerings, ranking Baylor 19th. The program is part of Baylor's department of family and consumer sciences.
