The Student Events Board kicked off a week of Halloween themed fun Monday night when they hosted a Psychic fair in the Midknight Eats Lounge.
More than two dozen students signed up for sessions lasting approximately five minutes each with either a Psychic or a Tarot Card reader, hoping to get a glimpse of their future.
“You’re not supposed to tell anyone what your results were,” said Sonia Morreira, a sophomore at the College. “But it was pretty accurate.”
The event was planned by SEB President Rebecca Moyer and the Director of Student Life, Chereva McCleloan, who is also the faculty advisor of the events board.
In previous years, the SEB has hosed the Saint Rose music Awards, but money for the event was reallocated by Student Association, and the Psychic fair was born.
“We still had to plan an event,” said Moyer, “so we took it upon ourselves and planned the event as a part of our themed week.”
Their work paid off, as the sign up list for the two hour event filled up within the first 30 minutes.
The psychic, Shannon Waddingham, is the main Psychic at Seraphim’s Keep, located at 911 Central avenue.
She does readings from the location, and often is hired by outside organizations to come do events such as Saint Rose’s psychic fair.
As for what drew students towards her talents, Morreira says she’s always been very curious about the psychic realm.
“I’ve always had a deep respect for that kind of stuff,” Morreira said. “I absolutely enjoyed it.”
