New College Socks
Description: Dartmouth College is a private Ivy League research university in Hanover, New Hampshire, United States. Established in 1769 by Eleazar Wheelock, Dartmouth is one of the nine colonial colleges chartered before the American Revolution. Emerging into national prominence at the turn of the 20th century, Dartmouth has since been considered among the most prestigious undergraduate colleges in the United States. Although originally established to educate Native Americans in Christian theology and the Anglo-American way of life, the university primarily trained Congregationalist ministers during its early history before it gradually secularized.
Description: English band X-Ray Spex was one of the first punk bands not only fronted by a woman, but by a biracial woman, whose stage name was Poly Styrene. With Styrene leading the group, X-Ray Spex brought a different, more expansive, and inclusive, Punk message and sound to the masses. X-Ray Spex’s music was not the fast, aggressive punk that many of their counterparts in the scene were creating. Rather, the band offered a more snarky, socially aware sound that was upbeat and contained pop stylings that connected with new wave music. Germfree Adolescents is the band's 1978 debut album that contained the UK hit singles "The Day the World Turned Dayglo" (No. 23), "Identity" (No. 24), and "Germ Free Adolescents" which reached No. 18 in November 1978.
Description: The simple Stuyvesant Physical Ed. Leader t-shirt that became famous overnight after appearing in the Beastie Boy's 1986 video for (You Gotta) Fight For Your Right (To Party) video when worn by none other than Ad-Rock himself. This lead to rumors that he had attended the school, when, in fact, it was original Beasties drummer Kate Schellenbach (as Mike D would reveal in Time Magazine years later) who had attended Stuyvesant High School, more commonly known simply as Stuy.
