Spirited events will keep
people scared, entertained
The campus and community
offer an array of activities,
including dances and movies

Got any plans for Thursday? If
you’re wondering what to do, the Eu
gene and campus communities have
a diverse array of events to get you
in the Halloween spirit.
“I think there are a great variety of
things to do on campus,” UO Cultur
al Forum Program Coordinator
Justina Parsons-Bernstein said.
“(People) can jump from event to
event. People just need to use their
imagination to keep themselves en
tertained.”
Just as “A Christmas Story” is a sta
ple of the holiday season, “The Rocky
Horror Picture Show” is becoming in
creasingly popular among the tradi
tions of Halloween. Cultural Forum is
showing the film at 9 p.m. at the EMU
Ballroom, followed by a Rocky
themed feast in the Fishbowl from
midnight to 1a.m. Tickets are #6for
students and $8 general admission.
University Housing will also
have some events to keep you
scared and entertained.
“I hope that students participate in
all the events on campus,” Residence
Life Director Sandra Schoonover said.
In Carson, students can go to a
free Halloween dance, as well as a
“‘B’ Movie Night” from 9 p.m. to mid
night. There will also be a late night
horror show in the Barnhart and Ri
ley complexes. In Bean, students can
spread some sweet cheer during a
trick-or-treat for children from 6
p.m. to 8 p.m., then attend a cos
tume dress up and movie at 8 p.m. at
the Hamilton Complex. More Hal
loween themed events are also
scheduled for the rest of the week
end in the dorms; events in the
dorms are open only to residents.
Political Halloween fare is also avail
able as former President Bill Clinton
drums up support for Democratic U.S.
Senate candidate Bill Bradbury at
McArthur Court at noon. Democratic
gubernatorial hopeful Ted Rulongoski,
U.S. Sen. Ron Wyden and Art Alex
akis of the band Everclear will also be
at the rally.
If campaign rallies don’t sound
like Halloween fun, how about some
live music? The WOW Hall and cam
pus radio station KWVA will host an
evening of punk rock with D:R.I.*
New Society of Anarchists and Mur
daholics. Tickets are $10 and are
available at CD World, Face The Mu
sic, House of Records, Taco Loco,
UO Ticket Office, and WOW Hall.
Doors open at 8 p.m. and showtime
is at 8:30 p.m..
Several bars around town also
plan to keep you in a party mood.
Taylor’s Bar and Grill is having a
costume ball, with Tympanic playing
at 9 p.m., while Neighbors is hosting
a costume contest at midnight with
cash prizes for winners. Costs are $5
at the door.
You can also get a taste of a tradi
tional Celtic Samhain celebration at
the Rejuvenation Mind Spa at 272
W. 11th Ave. from 5 p.m. to mid
night. This family-oriented event in
cludes scavenger hunts, card read
ing, astrology and a “past life” booth.
“There are so many great things to
do,” Student Life Assistant Dean Sh
eryl Eyster said. “I hope everyone
has a safe and happy, fun-filled Hal
loween weekend.”
