\n Thursday, Oct. 30th, my BU Business class will visit Salem, MA, for a full day of museums
\n and one of the more bizarre exhibitions of American culture. Besides being a historic New England fishing village,
\n colonial shipbuilding and whaling port, and an important literary landmark
\n (see The
\n House of the Saven Gables<\/a>), Salem has become the epicenter of Halloween
\n celebration and witchery in this whole part of the United States.<\/p>\n
\n after dark), as well a tons of school children and families out on a lark,
\n and tons of freaks, weirdos
\n and Goth wannabes. Costumes are optional, and there are plenty of places to
\n get them there. Some of my students always do.<\/p>\n
\n to list and discuss the ways in which the city of Salem is taking advantage
\n of the American celebration of Halloween for fame and fortune.<\/p>\n

\n of Salem sites as well as more general interest Halloween sites. <\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
