As senior prom approaches, Student Government wants your input on themes for the night you will never forget. Ever. After much deliberation, here are our finest picks.
- Tango through the Cold War
- Starry Night: Remembering the Tragic End of Van Gogh
- Eat the Rich and Skewer the Poor—It’s a Middle Class Prom!
- Wide-Brimmed Hats
- Will Ferrell Through the Ages
- Red Carpet Flops
- Retro Prom (i.e. this outfit would have been culturally appropriate in the 70s only)
- Gowns and Tailcoats—Poking Fun at the British Monarchy
- When Harry Met Sally (and realized that men and women can just be friends)
- Under the Sea Barnacle Bash
- Best in Show—Dress as Your Favorite Westminster Dog
- Prom on Ice
- Dust Bowl
