Forget the ghosts and goblins: Thereโs already plenty of scary stuff out there this year! Thatโs why, this Halloween, the College of Charleston is making sure students stay safe and healthy with a weekend of fun festivities without the fright.
โWe want our students to stay safe and healthy as our city and state work to limit the spread of COVID-19,โ said President Andrew T. Hsu in an email reminding all Cougars to think first โ about their costumes, their personal safety and about the health of the community at large โ when celebrating Halloween this year. โWe want everyone to have a fun and safe Halloween and for our entire campus community to continue to be proud of the way that our students behave and represent themselves and our university.โ
The College has a wide range of events โ from contests to drive-ins โ planned for Friday, Oct. 30, and Saturday, Oct. 31. A highlight of the weekend will certainly be โHalloween Yoga with President Hsuโ in the Cistern Yard at 5 p.m. on Friday. The โgentle Yinyasaโ style class will feature President Hsu and will include the Hsu Pose. Space is limited, and registration is now full. A full list of activities is below.
โOur goal is for all students who participate in events to have a happy, fun and safe Halloween,โ saysย Christine Workman, director of student life.ย โThis time of year is always a lot of fun, and the College has plenty of great activities planned to help students stay safe and healthy without missing out on a fun Halloween experience.โ
