Red River College is getting spookier.

October 23 kicks off Halloween week with Pumpkin Pie, a great end to a long work week.

Get your pie between 11:30 a.m. – 1:30 p.m. You can find a slice at the Exchange District Campus in P107 and in the library hallway at Notre Dame Campus. 

“Who wouldn’t want free food?” said Roy Lorenzo Pillotes, an EDC student.
