KRUI In The Homecoming Parade By Kade Grierson | Photos by Cael Ferguson It was the night before Halloween, which is the day before the national college student hangover day known as All Saints’ Day. I’d been walking out the door talking to a friend on the phone who told me to “break a leg” when I told them I was going to march in a parade.
