WHO: Sofie Daniszewski, freshman, sociology and citizenship and civic engagement major
WHAT: Otto the Orange
WHY: “It was funny because it’s so straightforward yet not a lot of people think about it. I think getting people to laugh or getting a, ‘Oh that’s really clever,’ reaction out of a Halloween costume is super cool.”
WHO: Elizabeth McMahon, freshman, political science and public relations major | Evan Donohue, freshman, anthropology major | Grace Bourbon, freshman, biology major
WHAT: Alvin and the Chipmunks
WHY: “We saw a TikTok of three guys doing that costume and we thought that the characters matched our personalities and that it would be fun. We also wanted a night out where we could wear a t-shirt and sweatpants,” McMahon said.
WHO: Allison McAteer, freshman, political science and public relations major
WHAT: Sabrina Carpenter, the singer-songwriter responsible for hits like “Espresso” and “Please Please Please.”
WHO: Micol Ceccarini, freshman, sociology and citizenship and civic engagement major
WHAT: Queen of Hearts

WHO: Meghna Bharath, senior, information management and technology and business analytics major
