Penn State's student government unanimously approved a resolution calling for posters to be displayed throughout campus urging students to avoid "cultural appropriation" with their Halloween costumes.
Taking a swing at “cultural appropriation,” Penn State’s University Park Undergraduate Association (UPUA) unanimously approved a “We’re a Culture Not a Costume” resolution.
The resolution calls on the UPUA to discourage offensive Halloween costumes by displaying posters featuring individuals of different cultures holding up pictures of someone in a costume that they feel is offensive to their culture.
