Children looking to hit the jack-o’-lantern jackpot are advised to make a trip to Monmouth College on Halloween.
On Oct. 31, several campus locations will have candy for the costumed kiddos, including several stops along East Broadway, bookended by Dahl Chapel and Auditorium on the Seventh Street corner and Weeks House on the Ninth Street corner. Both locations will welcome trick-or-treaters from 5:30-7:30 p.m. Monmouth’s Student Athlete Advisory Committee is in charge of the Dahl Chapel location, which will be staffed by Fighting Scots athletes.
Also along Broadway, Halloween bags can be filled at two sorority houses – Kappa Kappa Gamma and Alpha Xi Delta – as well as three fraternities – Sigma Phi Epsilon, Zeta Beta Tau and Phi Delta Theta. The latter will be set up at Marshall Hall, across Seventh Street from Dahl Chapel.
From 7-9 p.m., the Association for Student Activity Programming and Alpha Psi Omega, the national theatre honor society, will hold a coffeehouse event in Wells Theater, also welcoming trick-or-treaters.
Other non-Broadway locations on campus offering candy include the Pi Beta Phi sorority house, 922 East Euclid Ave.
