What is an NPC?
An NPC is a non-playing character. Dress up, show up and take part! Each attendee will earn special event badges and stickers!

Why the Pangolin?
The Pangolin is an endangered, solitary, and predominantly nocturnal mammal covered in scales. They are well adapted for digging and climbing using their tails and rear legs for support and balance. To some, pangolins seem almost like creatures from another world – much like our creative graduates! We believe the Pangolin’s visual uniqueness, willingness to cross boundaries, and ability to transcend limitations is a worthy metaphor for our Open Window graduate students.
