IUS Horizon September 26, 2011
More than 150 students were met with the hit song “Thriller” by Michael Jackson upon entering the Hoosier Room on Sept. 15. The room was donned with brightly colored nylons, poufy hair and leg warmers to mark the annual ’80s Night event held by Residence Life and Housing. The Hoosier Room was filled with streamers, balloons and cardboard character cutouts, including Princess Leia from “Star Wars” and Freddy Kreuger from “Nightmare on Elm Street.” The large screen at the front of the room played music videos of Madonna, as well as the movie “Grease” via YouTube. Jen Crompton, associate director of Residence Life, welcomed students at the door.
