Residents decorated their apartment doors, organized games and handed out treats to their 12-and-under guests, who turned up in all manner of disguise: princesses, puppies and other creatures, superheroes (including several Spider-men), firefighters and police officers, among them. Feedback was universally positive, with parents appreciating the safe environment and friendliness of residents. Photos by Becky J. Shaner, alumni relations assistant, and Michael J.
