University of Colorado Warns Against Offensive Halloween Costumes

Writer's picture: OurStudioOurStudio

Finding a Halloween costume that doesn't terrify politically-correct college busybodies could be a challenge this year, with schools warning students dressing up as cowboys, Native-Americans, hillbillies and even genies could be seen as offensive.

The University of Colorado at Boulder Dean of Students Christian Gonzales warned students in a campus memo of the dangers of donning a costume—almost any costume.

"If you are planning to celebrate Halloween by dressing up in a costume, consider the impact your costume decision may have on others in the CU community," Gonzales said. "… making the choice to dress up as someone from another culture, either with the intention of being humorous or without the intention of being disrespectful, can lead to inaccurate and hurtful portrayals of other peoples' cultures in the CU community."
