For the past 10 months I've been talking to a student at my work place about wearing the kilt. Six months back he shows up in a home made kilt. I gave him some information on Stillwater since I know he's short on funds. He now wears a SWK nightstalker once every 10 days or so. He tells me that he's been talking to his friends about wearing kilts.

Yesterday I left my building as usual heading for the parking lot. I'm walking along lost in thought when I happen to look up at someone who just passed me from behind. This college kid was wearing a wool kilt in a tartan I didn't recognize. (navy blue with a lot of red) This is a very conservative university and I noticed that he was getting a few glances but nothing major. I don't know if there is a connection. I'll have to do some asking. Even in a conservative bastion like Texas A&M, the kilt is slowly being accepted as an alternative to shorts/pants.
