Halloween on Campus



Halloween! For dorm life in AP, this is a big deal. There were many hall activities and peer advisor group activities centered around this theme. On 4th floor Austin, there was a door decorating contest. The winner, who received a $25 gift card to BDubb’s, was Sarah who cut individual pieces of cardboard, wrapped them in foil, and built of transformer on her door. A popular group activity was pumpkin decorating. My roommate and I even decorated our room; we had a ghost, pumpkin lights and a talking doorbell that had glowing red eyes. APB also pulled out the stops for Halloween, getting students tickets to Halloween Haunt at King’s Island for only $3! They also sponsored Fright Night, coming up on Nov. 6th. A night full of scary movies, a free T-shirt is promised to those who stay through them all. To kick off the weekend, the Lamda Chi Fraternity sponsored a Pumpkin Fest, which included seed-spitting and pumpkin carving contests, a greased pumpkin toss tournament and a tug-of-war. However, the best part of Halloween for those of us in the dorms was Goodies for Goblins night. On Tuesday, all the little kids in Wilmington had the chance to come through the dorms and go trick-or-treating. We got to pass out (and eat) lots of candy and the kids were so cute in all their costumes! I can’t wait til next year!
