On Tuesday, the Univer- sity asked students not to participate in the infamous BARE Run, aka the Undie Run. Alhough the event has been popular for many years, its mission — to serve as a fun place to donate clothes — has not been successful, accord- ing to the University email. While some students are bound to still strip and run, others might try to think of alternatives. Whether or not you were planning on going, here are five things to do this Friday instead: 1. Dress up as bears and run. Then go watch “The Revenant.” 2. Donate your clothes. Thrift stores, including Arc and the Goodwill, accept clothing donations. 3. Run around your house naked. The police can’t stop you there. Anjani Mahabir, 30, spends her days playing music at the Old Town Square. Mahabir accepts tips, but mainly just plays to be a part of the “Old Town 4.
