Students shop at Spirit Halloween for last-minute costumes

Halloween is just around the corner, which means Kent State students are on the hunt for the perfect Halloween costume. In what was once a discount store, the spirit of Halloween is alive and well. The pop-up store Spirit Halloween is here to help students get their nick-of-time broomsticks, fangs and more.

Hannah Fender, Kent State senior psychology major.

Soon after her decision to major in psychology at Kent State, someone had suggested to Hannah Fender that she should get involved in research as an undergraduate. So, she signed up to work in the research lab of Clare Stacey, Ph.D., associate professor of sociology, looking into how empathy changes over time in medical students. And that's when Fender was first bitten by the research bug.
