After-school special: What those wacky college kids are going to be for Halloween
A survey by the National Associated of College Stores shows most college students are going interactive with their get-ups this year.
--52% plan to dress up
--57% of those will make their own costume
--Only 2% will be a pirate
Karen Bartelme, the researcher in charge of the group that did the survey, says:
"Many of the costumes listed had an aspect of interactivity to them. One respondent said he was going as a memo board complete with magnets, push pins, stickers, and an outfit that people could write on. Another listed pinata...if you hit her she threw candy at you."
