College is a time to grow, to learn, to study. It's also one of the few times in life where people from every field of study are together on the same campus. Keep that in mind this fall as focus inevitably shifts to that one all important decision: “What am I going to be for Halloween?” Don’t overthink it! Show off your discipline in a fun and festive costume. After all, you’re already spending every waking hour immersed in your field of study. Don’t let all that knowledge go to waste! Get a few of your friends together and impress your classmates and your professors and with these themed costumes for each field of study.

Armed with the knowledge that at Waterloo Napoleon did surrender (and not just thanks to ABBA). Et tu, Caesar? This costume combination will make you the envy of your history department.
