OITE Coloring & Candy Halloween Events

About this event

OITE has only treats (no tricks) for NIH fellows across our campuses! Stop by, chat with other fellows and OITE staff, and enjoy some candy* and Halloween-themed mandala coloring sheets! We welcome all trainees to come in costume, but costumes are not required.

The OITE staff at Bethesda will also be competing for best costume – the winner will be determined by your votes and announced in the weekly OITE announcements the following week.

*Not purchased with government funds
