The OLINformer

Everyone loves Halloween, right?!? Costumes, candy and general craziness – we can all be kids for at least one day out of the year. So here are some pics from various Halloween-related events over the weekend…

From the FaculStaff Costume Competition:

Professors Zhenya Zastavker, Debbie Chachra, Alisha Sieminski and John Geddes

Asst. Director of Admission/Financial Aid Patty Blanchette (the bow-headed ghost) and Oscar, Zhenya and Debbie (all profs) applaud Visiting Professor Dave Miller’s “Hopper Accident” costume

Kate ‘09 with Debbie, Oscar and Zhenya

Oscar with Sarah ‘10 (I cannot tell you how much I love her costume, especially the udders!)

The Pigtail Crew - Emma Goodman ‘06, Alison Black (Asst. Dean of Student Life) and me

After a long day of Halloweening, Emma and her husky slippers take a break

Halloween Party
As my lame pictures reflect, few students dressed up on Halloween… that is in part due to the fact that many of them got decked out for their own Halloween Extravaganza on Friday night… (Photos below by Chujiao ‘10)
Alice in Wonderland

The Fanta Girls!

Tetris

The crowd, from above

The T (Get it?!? The Red, Green, Blue and Orange lines)

X-Men

The Ant Farm…

Sooo, the story goes that the Class of 2006 referred to the Academic Center as the “Ant Farm.” Why? Well, it becomes quite apparent at night when the entire building is lit up and you can see EVERYONE inside…

Although I usually mention that little anecdote in information sessions when I show the above picture, I was beginning to wonder if the younger Oliners would carry on the tradition. I am happy to say YES!! Check out the little Halloween “prank” below:

That’s the latest and greatest from the Land of Olin! Hope everyone had a great Halloween… and keep working on those applications!
