Sigma Alpha will host their annual haunted corn maze Oct. 25-28 at the University Farm. The maze will be open from 7-10 p.m. Oct. 25 and from 8 p.m.-12 a.m. Oct. 26 and 27.

The National Society of Collegiate Scholars will host a Halloween-themed trivia event at 6 p.m. Oct. 27 in the Student Union Building Activities Room to raise money for polio. Cost is $3 per person or $12 per team.

The National Education Association’s Trunk or Treat event will take place from 3:30-6 p.m. Oct. 28 in the Patterson event parking lot. Truman organizations will decorate the trunks of cars to pass out candy to participants. Trunk or treat events provide a safe, efficient way for individuals to get candy, saving trick-or-treaters, particularly children and adults with special needs, from going door-to-door in the dark.

The Residence Hall Association and National Residence Hall Honorary will sponsor trick-or-treating in the residence halls from 6-8 p.m. Oct. 31. Residents will have a door tag to indicate participation in the event. Centennial Hall residents will have allergen-free candy options.
