Christopher Mukes, education junior from New Orleans, is known around campus as a member of the infamous Strike Team.

The Strike Team can be found in front of the Student Union writing citations once a week for those students who are said to be “disturbing the peace of the campus due to their lack of fashion sense,” Mukes said.

“Basically, our job is to bring awareness to this ‘disease,’ ” Mukes said. “It is running rampant around campus and around the world, actually.”

Mukes said that even his favorite artist, Drake, suffers from this “affliction.”

“He is a very chap individual,” he said. “Great artist. I take nothing away from him, but he has no swag when it comes to dressing.”

When Mukes is not giving out fashion citations, he can be seen in the classroom pursuing his degree in education.

“I came from New Orleans where we have a very inadequate school system,” he said. “I figured once I’d come to college I could give back by correcting some of the wrongs.”

After graduation, Mukes plans to follow in the footsteps of his uncle and role model, Frank Wilson. Wilson, an assistant coach and recruiting coordinator for Louisiana State University, is Mukes’ inspiration to follow his dream of becoming a successful football coach in the future.

“He has come from very humble beginnings where it was 10 siblings living in a two bedroom house in Algiers, and now his guest house is bigger than the house I live in,” he said. “He came from nothing, basically. You can look at some of the celebrities and see how they come from nothing, but this is somebody I actually know and I’ve watch struggle to get to where they have come. It has made it easier for me to do what I want to do now.”

A: My definition of “chap” is simply a person who is just not put together. They are wearing Sauconys in 2011 with pocket chains, Dickie pants and Girboud’s with the straps. It’s 2011—not 1997.

It was white and black to go along with the theme of the outfit. I think he had one earring in also.
