An improved understanding of interstellar dust will lead to robust models that can more accurately recover intrinsic spectral energy distributions and probe the grains' environment. Current grain models meet the requirements placed on them by the UV-IR observations and elemental abundances; we must look to other wavelength regimes to futher constrain them and thus discriminate amongst models. X-ray dust halos are an excellent grain characteristic diagnostic and can provide badly needed constraints on grain models. We have obtained UV-NIR extinction curves and X-ray halo data along the sightline to X Per. This broad wavelength coverage will allow us to challenge grain models and distinguish amongst them.
