OU Halloween: A Good Time or the Devil's Day?


By Jacqui, Ina, and Jill

              

                Our story is about the special weekend each year that is devoted to Halloween. Once a year the campus is overrun with people from all over in order to celebrate a day in which you can be someone other than yourself. This weekend is one of the most controversial times in which people are forced to face their beliefs and their interests about this issue. People stand on both sides and partygoers can see the clash of beliefs on the very day itself. Through law enforcement, religious believers, student, and local business owners, each person adds a different side to the debate.
             This is an interest piece for anyone who comes to OU for the weekend. They have to be aware of what is happening around them and the consequences. Another facet is for students who attend this school because the reputation can affect job offers. It affects the community because business owners benefit greatly though profit but there is also vandalism and other offenses that happen each year.
