Haunted Houses and Scavenger Hunts

Though most activites here are run by the student activities committee, there are other events that other groups on campus run. Two of them took place last night all over campus. First was the Mitchell Haunted House. Mitchell House is a dorm on campus that is for BA female students and every year as a group the put on a walk through haunted house. Last night they had their haunted house open for business. I helped out with make up which meant I knew most of what was going to happen, though I must admit that it was still a tad scary. My roomates and I walked through and in the first room one of my roomates lost it and hid her face the rest of the walk through. They jumped, screamed, and did all they could to make you jump out of your skin. They did a wonderful job at making it scary. Though for those like my roomate who are not big fans of haunted houses, there are other activites for you to enjoy. Such as the HUB scavenger hunt.

The campus here at Dean is seperated into different groupings, and each group will throw their own activities, though anyone on campus can join if they like to. Last night the HUB area held a scavenger hunt across campus. You had a list of what you had to find and you had to take a picture of one of your group members with whatever you had found on the list. I did not participate this year, but last year as a freshman I had participated. It was a lot of fun to run around campus with your friends and it really helps you to see how well you know the campus.as well. And like most competitions theres always a winner and usually some sort of prize or reward!

Dean has all sorts of activities to participate in. You just have to keep your eyes open. Its fun to get involved and participate. So next time your sitting around on a friday or saturday night ask around and look at the flyers hanging up in your hallways and attend something new. Get involved and have fun!
