Happy Halloweekend folks. We’re almost to the big day itself, so if you haven’t gotten your plastic fangs or hockey mask now would be the time to swing by Value Village for some bargain costume pieces. If you, like me, have been preparing for this Halloween since last Halloween, you might be more inclined to spend the weekend relaxing by tuning in to KSUA at 91.5 and the sweet sound of college radio. – Kyrie Long / Editor-in-Chief
