For our last Halloween themed cocktail, I’ve chosen a quick, simple and mighty tasty beverage.
All you need are two ingredients. That’s right, only two. You don’t need fancy shmancy liqueurs to have a delicious, relaxing drink. I present to you: The Whiskey Ginger.
What you need:
– A cup
– Whiskey (any brand is fine)
– Ginger ale (any brand is also fine)
Directions:
Grab ingredients and mix to your preference. Personally I do a shot and a half of whiskey, and then add ginger ale until it’s to my liking. How strong or weak it is, is up to you.
Although this isn’t an overtly Halloween themed drink, it will still get the job done. I hope this month of Cocktail Corner was to your liking. Happy Halloween! Remember to drink responsibly.
If you have any cocktails that you think are delicious and would like to share, please contact me.

lovable mascot Wolfie. This week next to the Werner University Center Bookstore, there is a display of Wolfie throughout the years titled “Go Wolves! The Progression of Our Mascot.” To celebrate how much we’ve changed over our hundreds of homecomings, the Hamersly Library Archives, Student Engagement, Student Activities Board and the Office of Alumni have cooperated to set up several display cases that hold the past heads of Western’s biggest fan. Wolfie was originally named Waldo when he made his debut at our school in 1928. He claimed the name Wolfie in 1982. Wolfie has been representing and supporting our school for all of these years, and will continue to, even after our world turns to dust. Although he has changed through the years, the messages he sends out to our students and fans are the same as ever: have pride in your school, joy in your work and keep on fighting. Go Wolves!

The race is a mile long run that the participants compete in while wearing only underwear, or running clothes if they prefer. The race then ends at the bonfire location; the person who wins the race then lights the bonfire. The event raised a full barrel worth of clothes that will be donated to the Union Gospel Mission, located in Salem.
mpus, and get a familiarity and see how it feels to be on the campus, because that’s really influential on deciding where you go to college,” said Sydney Culpepper, a Western ambassador who gives tours of the campus and helps people get from session to session. “It’s also really nice to see the different opportunities because a lot of students don’t know the things that they can do when they come to college.”
