FASHION BUSINESS: As an undergraduate economics major, Stephen Macaskill ’11 (KEY) was president of the Young Americans for Liberty group on campus. Now as a KEY student, he’s putting his interest in freedom to work with his Amagi Clothing company. Selling T-shirts that sport slogans such as “Laissez Faire” and “Stand Up for Liberty,” Macaskill hopes to promote liberty through his apparel, whose designs he commissions. He cites Zappos founder Tony Hsieh as a role model, and says, “I’m learning quickly and having a lot of fun doing it.”
