The Denise and Chandler Root Crimson Career Closet, located in 3607C The University of Alabama Student Center, next to the main Career Center, houses professional clothing that students can borrow at no cost for interviews, career fairs and presentations. Our inventory includes button-down shirts, blouses, blazers, pants, skirts, ties and suits.
Students with no overdue clothing items may check out up to four pieces at a time. Items may be kept for up to seven days, and may be returned any time during normal business hours. Students will be required to complete a rental agreement upon checking out clothes.
