What other holiday might be improved by the use of costumes?
“Guy Fawkes Day. Everyone
would dress up as a bonfire. You
could just cover yourself in twigs
and set them on fire.”
—Luke Burns,
first-year grad student
“It would be funny if, on Election
Day, you dressed up as the
candidate you wanted to win. Or
it would be cool if there was a hero
holiday and everyone got to dress
up as their hero.”
—Carly Boland,
second-year grad student
“Valentine’s Day. You could make
a romantic statement in more
creative ways — dressing to attract
or repel possible mates.”
—Drew Mason,
AV/Media Services Coordinator
“Groundhog Day. You could dress
as your alter-ego. Everyone would
step out of their own shadow.”
—Nathalie Huertha,
second-year grad student
“I have a costume for Labor Day.
It’s sweatpants. Not white ones,
of course.”
—Sasha Brown,
junior
“My birthday, March 7. I would
like it if everybody on campus
walked around campus with
popped collars. Double popped
collars would be even better. No
stripes, all solids.”
—Melanie Nicole Cargle,
first-year grad student
“Easter. There’s a lot of
different directions you could take
it.”
—Samara Halperin,
faculty
