Word on Campus: What were the best Halloween costumes at Longwood?
A. The photos say…
As fall continues, Halloween has come and gone — leaving expired jack-o-lanterns and crumpled bat decorations in its wake. With Oct. 31 arriving on a Monday this year, Longwood celebrated the spooky holiday as a community, sharing each others’ costumes.
Some students arrived to classes clad in the clothes of cartoon characters themselves or shared laughs with their professors at their wacky costume choice. A few Longwood athletics teams — baseball, softball, tennis — Halloween practices, playing in more gear than they’re used to. Check out the Word’s compilation video of photos taken above, thanks to Longwood University public relations, the Greenwood Library staff, Longwood performance staff, the Longwood tennis teams, and Longwood softball for capturing their experience!
