More than 1,000 elementary and middle school children from the Chicago area came to Norris University Center on Thursday for Project Pumpkin, an annual event allowing children to play games and trick or treat in a safe environment. Sponsored by the Northwestern Community Development Corps, Project Pumpkin featured a haunted house and other activities. NCDC partnered with the Interfraternity Council, the Panhellenic Association and Dance Marathon for the event. Fifty-five student groups set up booths in Norris, and 80 student chaperones helped throughout the day.
