... some of which were tasty in a decidedly distasteful way!
Students eye the evening's fare, billed as "Eerie Entrees, Scary Sides and Hauntingly Delicious Desserts" ...
Dining Services' traditional fall feast draws an astounding 950 guests.
From the literally corny to the shivery bone-chilling, who doesn't relish dressing for dinner?
Taking its theme from "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest," the Residence Life Office playfully inhabits "The Wildcat Asylum" for Halloween. From left, in their various guises as medical staff and patients (each diagnosed with a whimsical disorder), are Jon D. Wescott, director; Barbara A. Adzema, residence life assistant; coordinators Marceline Y. Salomon-Debrosse, Jamie R. Miller, Michael D. Penwell and Catherine E. Gamez; Ashley M. Lyons, secretary; Julia M. Ely, student office clerk; and Timothy J. Mallery, assistant director). Absent is Amie K. Fox, assistant director, who - according to an all-points-bulletin befitting the day's costumed fun - "escaped ...and we have been unable to locate her."
The challenge of the electronic canvas awaits David P. Noble, of Portage.
Less messy than the real thing, but no less involved
Bradley M. Haines, of Mifflinburg, wields virtual tools in seeing his design to the finish.
Students, including Jason P. Hill (foreground), of Allenwood, try their practiced hand at replicating the Wildcat logo.
John C. Yamoah, of Upper Darby, was the winner in Katherine A. Walker's morning class. "The students are using advanced commands to carve their pumpkins," said Walker, an assistant professor of engineering design technology. "The contest motivates them to raise the bar even higher with those techniques. As a professor, it is rewarding to work with the students, as they are determined to have the highest quality with their designs."
