The Perfect Halloween Costume Based on Your Major



It’s that time of year! Binghamton students are preparing for one of the community’s most beloved excuses to get completely wasted: Halloweekend. There’s nothing more fun than getting all dressed up and going out with your friends- or going to Late Nite’s Halloween thing if you’re weird like that, I guess. But with retail spaces like Spirit Halloween popping up and providing celebrators with so many different options for costumes, it’s almost impossible to choose what exactly to wear. What many people fail to consider is that they can choose a costume based on something that brings all students complete, uncontrollable joy- their schoolwork. That’s right- your major can be a great place to start in deciding your Halloween costume. Through intensive research, the BUTT’s dauntless team has compiled a list of the best costumes for each major.


Psychology

Psychology is one of the most popular majors at Binghamton and, coincidentally, the subject that neuroscience students are quickest to denounce as “not actually STEM.” Regardless, there are plenty of spooky things that psych majors can dress up as this year. The BUTT recommends dressing up as someone who even the most common of rubes can recognize- Sigmund Freud. If you’re looking for a couples costume, consider having your partner dress up as your mom. See how that makes you feel.


Nursing

There are heaps of costumes that Binghamton’s nursing students can wear. You could dress up as something scary like a nurse from Silent Hill, or you could take the more risque route by dressing up as Greek physician Hippocrates. What the BUTT most highly recommends for nursing students is the classic costume that we all know and love, parasitic worm! You’re sure to impress everybody at the Halloween party if you’re dressed as a parasitic worm! Everyone loves the iconic parasitic worm!


Biology

If there’s one thing I know about bio majors, it’s that they love nothing more than exploiting small, furry animals for fame and wealth. That’s why all biology students should dress up as Ian Hawke, the villain of the live action Alvin and the Chipmunks movies. If you don’t already have a rodential creature to manipulate for your personal gain, consider finding a chipmunk in CIW and forcing it to sing K-pop songs.


Business

A lot of people make fun of SOM students, but I think we all know they’ll end up ruling the world once they inherit their dads’ companies. If you study business and you’re looking for something that would be fun and interesting to wear on a night out, we’ve got you covered! Sexy Warren Buffet is projected to be one of the most popular costumes this year, and there's a good reason why. Who wouldn’t want to dress up as a 94-year-old Nebraskan investor, but also with fishnets and your titties out?


English

Oh, English majors. The people who are majoring in a language they’re already fluent in. I just don’t know how you do it. English majors could be anything they can imagine, from famous authors to book characters. But what we at the BUTT recommend for English majors is something that will take Halloween costumes to a whole other level- the unattainable American Dream. Surely all of your friends will understand when you pull up dressed as the green light, and surely they will think it’s cool and clever of you! 


Anthropology

Starbucks barista. Sorry. Sometimes you have to keep it realistic.


Computer Science

Computer science majors have a lot to be afraid of- women; deodorant; an extremely competitive job market; turning off League of Legends and leaving the room so that your roommate has the privacy to jack off. But there’s one thing that’s scarier than all of those combined, something so frightening that your costume might make people piss their pants in terror. My hands are trembling just thinking about it. Freddy Fazbear from Five Nights at Freddy’s.


Stay safe out there this Halloween!
