Goings On Week 3

Dear Foothill College,

As we move through the third week of the Fall Quarter the holiday season is getting closer and closer.  Halloween is just around the corner.  Time for a haunted house, maybe in the bamboo garden. Don't be scared, we at the Honors Institute are excited to share the goings on.
