campus kicks off holloween celebrations tonight


Students are getting freaky this Halloween season. They don’t have to wait ‘till the 31st to start trick-or-treating, students at Muir College will meet tonight at 9:30 p.m. at Half Dome to trick or treat in the Muir Apartments. Costumes are encouraged and the first 75 to show will get a free reusable bag and free candy.

Friday UCSD is hosting its annual costume contest from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. where hundreds of members of the UCSD community try to outdo one another and win prizes.

Also on Friday is UCSD's legendary pumpkin drop. Muir College will be dropping two 200 lb pumpkins from the 11th story of Tioga Hall, the tallest building on the Muir College campus, at 12:30 p.m. Inside the pumpkin will be an assortment of individually wrapped candy which students scurry to claim. The pumpkin’s “splat” is measured each year.
