Honors College VIRTUAL Halloween Costume Contest!

This is it, the week before Halloween (my favorite holiday), and we have a LOT going on! We are officially putting out the call for your Halloween costume submissions!

Here is what you need to know/do to join in on the fun:

  • By Thursday, October 26th, at 11:59pm, send us two separate images: 1) a .jpeg, screenshot, etc., of the character or person you are dressing as, 2) a photo of yourself dressed as that character or person. See samples here!
  • Send to honorscollege@umbc.edu with the email title: Costume Contest: Last Name
  • We will compile a "ballot," open voting on Friday, October 27th, and announce the winners on Halloween! Yes, there will be PRIZES for the Best Costume in a number of different categories.

Please keep in mind that this is a family show, so to speak; also, if you have an idea but are concerned it might be an example of cultural appropriation (vs. one of cultural appreciation), ask one of us in the Honors College. We'd be happy to talk it through with you!


 So get those creative juices flowing!
