Viviano Ayala
Reporter
To learn more about the field of fashion and cosmetics, a group of
fashion merchandising students toured the Mary Kay Cosmetics facility
in Dallas recently.
Accompanying the group was Sally Profitt, fashion merchandising
instructor on NE Campus.
Proffitt, who is also the faculty chairperson of the fashion merchan-
dising department, said she and her class of 15 students were given a full
tour through Mary Kay’s international headquarters.
The organization is celebrating 30 years in the cosmetics business.
The hour-long tour included the manufacturing area where the
cosmetic products are made, Profitt said.
One of the students, Loren Boatwright, a fashion merchandise major,
was impressed by the high production efficiency.
“An average of 59,000 lipstick tubes can be produced in one 10-hour
shift,” Boatwright said.
“There is a day shift and a night shift, and they compete with each
other to see who can make more lipstick tubes in a 10-hour shift,” she
added.
The fashion group also toured the executive offices of the company
and a museum full of Mary Kay memorabilia.
Proffitt said the museum included different types of make-up that
have made Mary Kay Cosmetics successful over the years and numerous
awards won by Mary Kay for the quality of its products.
“Mary Kay Cosmetics sells products to 19 countries worldwide and
has sold over one billion dollars in merchandising this year,” Profitt said.
“If anyone is interested in knowing more about the field of fashion and
cosmetics, I strongly recommend them to attend one of these tours,” she
said.
Mary Kay Cosmetics is on 1330 Regal Rd. off Stemmons Freeway
in Dallas.
The tours are from Monday-Friday at 10:30 a.m. and 2 p.m., each an
hour long.
For more information, the phone number is (214) 630-8787.

Student, friend fatally shot
Reese Dunklin

A South Campus student and companion were
fatally shot in a possible drug-related incident and
discovered in vacant parking lot in southwest Fort
Worth early Saturday morning, police sources said.
Victims of gunshot wounds to the head, Melanie
Golchert, 18, and friend, Channing Freelove, a 19-
year-old TCU pre-med major, were found face down in
the 2100 block of Southwest Loop 820 shortly before
4 a.m.
The shootings have been ruled homicide by Tarrant
County Medical Examiner Nizam Peerwani.
No arrests, as of Monday, had been made.
Fort Worth police department investigation reports
were kept closed, with officers declining to release
information on a murder weapon, suspect or motive.
New information released Monday, found the
murder to be possibly drug related, Lt. P.J. Kneblick,
public information officer for the department, said.
“A green leafy substance approximately two and a
half pounds, expected to be marij uana, was found in the
apartment of one of the victims,” Kneblick said.
“The leads led the detectives to believe (the murder)
is drug related,” she said.
By
The department “will not release any information”
pertaining to a possible murder weapon or suspect,
Kneblick said.
Friday night, Freelove told her Sherley Hall
dormitory roommate, that she and Golchert were going
to celebrate her birthday.
According to a police report, Golchert’s body was
found on the ground next to the passenger-side door
with several gunshot wounds in the right side of her
head.
Freelove was discovered on the driver’s side with
a bullet wound to the right side of neck.
Kneblick said there was no sign of struggle—the
victims were fully clothed—and the two were killed at
the scene.
“Because of the extent of their wounds, they could
not have driven the car (Freelove’s dark blue 1984 four-
door Oldsmobile),” she said.
Blood was found by investigators on the inside and
outside of Freelove’s vehicle, and the driver’s side
window had been shot out.
Funeral services for Golchert—a former standout
athlete and student at Paschal High School— are pending.
Services for Freelove—also a standout athlete,
student at Paschal and scholarship student at TCU—
were yesterday at Calvary Cathedral.
