Karlie Kloss Goes Back to School

Model Karlie Kloss is setting down her Donna Karen bag and picking up a pile of books.
 
Karlie, who covers the September Fall Fashion issue of Glamour, says, "I didn't want to wait until I'm 30 to continue learning and challenging myself in new ways.” The 6’1” blonde begins classes this fall at NYU.

"I do feel a responsibility to be an example for young women in general. That's what Kode with Karlie is about."
 
The “Kode with Karlie” scholarship is a two-week program open to girls between the ages of 13 and 18, that teaches them back-end software engineering. She is teaching girls how to code!
 
While Karlie is diving into her studies, she will still be modeling. About her photos, she said, "I rely on taking on a particular role, like an Oscar de la Renta society swan or a Diane von Furstenberg business lady. I feel more vulnerable when it's just me up there."
