A time of year almost every student looks forward to is holidays at the end of the year like Christmas. One of STUCO’s annual events plans to bring the Christmas spirit into the halls, more specifically the doors, of FHN.

“So as of right now we are planning on doing a door decoration competition,” STUCO President, Maddy Hecht said.

In the previous years, STUCO has sponsored a hall decorating competition for all the hallways of each department. When FHN got a new building, it included some new building rules as well. Nothing should be stuck to the new walls of any hallway. That is the rule STUCO had to work around to create a competition for upbringing of students’ spirit.

“So I kind of assumed there was gonna be problems with deck halls,” Hecht said. “And [Rowan] Pugh had mentioned last year that it would be a little different. So, I kind of had already anticipated it.”

The competition will be just doors decorated by students and doors decorated by whole departments. While it may look less festive without lights stringing from the ceilings or Christmassy banners plastered onto the walls, the idea of having some festive elements will align with the intent of the competition during this holiday season.

“I feel like it might be easier for people to commit to an entire hallway,” Hecht said. “I think that was our goal, to try to get more teachers and more people to do their doors. It also gives more opportunity for different themes, because the whole hallway doesn’t have to be the same.”
