As another Halloween season approaches, an ever-growing universities are cracking down on offensive costumes, even hosting panel discussions to instruct students on what to avoid. Humboldt State University, for instance, plans to host a discussion Monday on how "cultures are disregarded, mocked, or simply dehumanized" by Halloween costumes, encouraging students to avoid "cultural appropriation" in their costume selections...Princeton University, meanwhile, recently offered a "conversation circle" to students to help them "engage in a dialogue about the impact of cultural appropriation, Halloween, and why culture is not a costume."
