Students
are invited to attend Thursday’s Spooktacular
festivities, which encourage faculty and
staff to compete against each other in Halloween-themed
contests.
Charleen Rice, who is helping to coordinate
the event, said she expects about 100 to
150 to attend the costume-optional event
at the second floor courtyard of the University
Student Union.
Scheduled activities include individual
and group costume contests and a department
decorating contest, though participants
are known to also act out skits.
Contest prizes will include congratulatory
plaques and a gift certificate for a pizza
party at Round Table Pizza in the University
Student Union.
Last year’s group costume winners were Facilities
Management with their “Women at Work” theme,
the Foundation Office for their “Uncle Sam”
theme and the Audio/Visual department for
their “Harry Potter” theme.
Some of the departments and offices participating
in this year’s decorating contest are the
Copy Center, the clothing department of
the University Bookstore, the convenience
stores located at the bookstore and in the
USU, the physics department office and several
offices in Brotman Hall.
In addition to the costume contests, Spooktacular
will feature music and door prizes.
The annual event will be held from noon
to 1:30 p.m. at the second floor courtyard
of the USU.
