Halloween spirit at LLCC
LLCC students, faculty and staff got into the Halloween spirit on Thursday donning some creative costumes.
If these were the residents of Shady Pines, maybe Sophia, from the Golden Girls, wouldn’t have minded the retirement facility.
Who wore it better? Alex Dean, student support specialist, TRIO, dressed as Shanda Byer, vice president, student services.
Student Life also hosted pumpkin painting event in A. Lincoln Commons.
