ODE’s Ghosts of Halloweens Past

By day, the staff of Office of Distance Education are the people who work to deliver Boston University’s award-winning online courses, and who help students from all around the world get the most out of their programs.

But by night — one night each year, in particular — our staff becomes Cleopatra. A witch. A Chilean miner. The Queen of Hearts. John Oates. Even Beetlejuice.

It’s Halloween week, so as the world puts the final touches on its costumes and prepares to go trick-or-treating, we here at ODE decided to look back at some of our favorite get-ups from yesteryear, and thought we’d share.

Can you tell who’s who? If you need a refresher on which names go with which faces, you can check out some of the getting-to-know-you posts we’ve published over the past few years — here’s one, here’s another, and here’s yet another — then try to pair up the person with the picture. A list of those depicted is given, and the answers are at the bottom of this post.

Have fun! And Happy Halloween!
